Join us for the fourth virtual session learning about SRP  Technology from Dr. Andrea Pitkin, DVM, MS, Technical Service Veterinarian - Swine, Vaxxinova US.  Does your herd have gut issues? This session ensures diarrhea is no longer a dirty word. It is something we should talk about! Because good news! Research shows YOU ARE NOT ALONE! And with custom-made SRP vaccines, we can help wipe diarrhea from your herd! Besides sharing some stories about the effectiveness of SRP vaccines, this session will also explain what SRP's are and how SRP vaccines target pathogenic bacteria that cause damage to the gut of animals.  This session will prepare attendees for the in-person Pearls of Production Conference on November 8.  

Introducing “Chick-Chat” (starting at 6:40pm) a 20-minute session as you log on to network and talk to other producers.  

If virtual sessions aren’t your cup of tea, we are also providing “Barn locations” to attend the session from one of seven extension offices.    

This is the fourth of five Pixels of Production Sessions, leading up to Pearls of Production in November. Virtual sessions will provide additional foundation for the hands-on training available at Pearls of Production.
