The relationship between disease incidences of fatteners registered at slaughter and environmental factors in herds.
The incidences of penumonia, pleurisy and white spots in liver were registered on slaughtered fattening pigs and herd identity. Disease incidences were found to be close related to herd environmental factors, e.g. hygiene and husbandry, recruitment forms and raising methods, and ventilation efficiency.
