Lambton County farm has PED

A farrow-to-finish operation in Lambton County was confirmed as infected with Porcine Epidemic Diarrhea virus on Jan. 24.

Hog farmers, truckers and service providers are reminded to practice high-level biosecurity to keep the virus from spreading, especially since it survives longer in cold weather.


This is the 71st case in Ontario since it first showed up in the province a year ago.
