Characterization of changes in productivity parameters as breeding herds transitioned through the 2021 PRRSV breeding herd classification system

Using retrospective data from 6 breed-to-wean herds over 4 years, porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) statuses were assigned by week according to the 2021 American Association of Swine Veterinarians PRRSV classification. Productivity changes were characterized as herds transitioned through status categories. Overall, productivity improved as farm status improved.
