Use of hyperimmune serum, vaccination, and certain management procedures for control of pseudorabies in swine

A program involving use of hyperimmune serum, vaccination, and certain management procedures for the control of pseudorabies was evaluated on several farms on which the disease was enzootic. Neonatal mortality and reproductive failures on farms utilizing the program were compared with death losses and reproductive failures on farms not utilizing the program. The reduction in preweaning mortality and reproductive failures between the treated and nontreated groups were 42.1% and 39.6%, respectively.
