This provincial health pro- gram was established in 1960 to provide Ontario pork producers with reliable sources of breeding swine. A second source of new animals is the minimal disease herd. "These herds may have been on the provincial swine program, and are raised like Certified Herd Policy herds. However, they may not receive provincial veterin- ary visits or regular post- mortem examinations of head and lungs." Commercial or purebred herds are a third swine source. Buyers should ver- ify the herd health status with a veterinarian before purchase. Dr. Oliver cautions against buying pigs from unknown sources because their health histories cannot be traced.
