The National Pork Board recently launched a platform to help pork producers respond quickly to an event such as a foreign animal disease outbreak (FAD). The new technology would allow producers to isolate any affected pigs without involving numerous additional involvement of animals or farms. The new software-based technology tool, free to pork producers through the Pork Checkoff, is called AgView a web application intended for use from a desktop computer, but is accessible from mobile devices.
AgView provides near real-time health and movement status to help the U.S. pork industry rapidly conduct contact-tracing to contain or regionalize a foreign animal disease outbreak such as African swine fever (ASF).
