Where Do You Obtain Research Information?

Researchers at the Ontario Veterinary College in Guelph, Canada are conducting a survey of AASV members to learn more about (1) where and why swine veterinarians get research information, (2) what you think about this process, and (3) how this process may be improved. All members of the AASV are invited to participate. That’s approximately 1400 swine health specialists in over 40 countries! Researchers believe this is the first time globally, swine veterinarians have been surveyed on how they use and access research. The fully anonymous survey is 24 multiple choice questions and is also available in French and Spanish. It will take approximately 9 minutes to complete. Your input is greatly valued. As a token thank you, respondents completing the survey by April 30th can choose to enter a random draw for a copy of the 10th Edition of Diseases of Swine. More information and the survey (REB# 16JA029) can be accessed by clicking on the link below.

Video: Ice Makes Reorganizing & Moving Sheep Hazardous!

Ice makes reorganizing the sheep barns and moving sheep in preparation for lambing very hazardous - it looks more like sheep skating in an ice rink than walking in a barnyard! But, lambing season is quickly approaching, and we have the final group of ewes that require vaccinating prior to lambing, the last breeding rams need to be removed from breeding groups and tattooed, and the barns all need reorganizing to accommodate the new lambs that will be arriving shortly. So, in today’s sheep farming vlog at Ewetopia Farms, we can no longer wait for better weather conditions and must brave the treacherous ice and hope no one gets injured! This is Canadian sheep farming!
