Abstract
HENAO BELTRAN, Juan Sebastián; RAMIREZ AGUIRRE, Erika and RONDON-BARRAGAN, Iang Schroniltgen. Analysis of Good Production Practices in pig farms on the departamento del Tolima and risk factors associated with presence of Salmonella spp. Ces. Med. Vet. Zootec. [online]. 2012, vol.7, n.2, pp.11-20. ISSN 1900-9607.
The porcine production in Colombia has experienced an important growth and has improved significantly its productivity during the past 15 years. However, an increase in national and international demand for harmless pig-based products for human consumption has been currently evidenced, with actions they promote food innocuity and they guarantee its hygienic quality for consumer benefit, in addition to workers security, animal welfare and environmental sustainability. The purpose of this work was to formulate an analysis and review of good production practices in farms destined to pig production in the Department of Tolima, taking into account the requirements established by national entities, specially, the basic guidelines of the Asociación Nacional de Porcicultores (ACP), in order to determine and quantify the risk factors associated to the presence of porcine Salmonella.
