Porcine Epidemic Diarrhea Virus is otherwise known to the pork industry as PEDv. Because of the effect it can have on producers' herds, it was an obvious decision for the Wisconsin Pork Association and the National Pork Board to begin working towards elimination of the virus. Morgan Worek, a pork producer here in Wisconsin and Program Director for the Wisconsin Pork Association, joins Kiley Allan and Marisa Rotolo, the Director of Swine Health at National Pork Board. Morgan says the desire to eliminate the virus began with the producers.
