Agricultural Disinfection in Freezing Conditions: Strategies for Winter Success

As winter approaches the Canadian landscape, agricultural operations face unique challenges when it comes to maintaining a safe and healthy environment.

Cold winter days bring a challenge for the outdoor application of liquid disinfectants due to the fact that most disinfectant products are aqueous and freeze around 0°, and therefore requires farmers to adapt their practices to safeguard crops, livestock, and equipment.

In this blog, we will explore the impact of freezing conditions on agricultural disinfection practices and discuss innovative solutions, such as using Propylene Glycol and the advantages of Prevail™ Disinfectants for maintaining a sanitary environment in the winter.

Video: The Future of Swine Health: Advanced Diagnostics and Customized Vaccines


In this interview, Jay Halliday of Vaxxinova US discusses how advanced diagnostic technologies are helping pork producers better identify, monitor, and respond to disease challenges within their herds.
Unlike traditional diagnostic methods, WGS enables the identification of multiple pathogens within a sample, supports surveillance of emerging variants, helps evaluate feedback programs, and improves isolate selection for autogenous vaccine development.
The conversation also explores the importance of customized vaccine solutions and the role of adjuvants such as Amplivac™ and Trigen™ in enhancing immune responses against key swine pathogens.
