AASV Practice Tips Now Online

May 6, 2014 — AASV Staff

Each year at the AASV Annual Meeting, the Practice Tips pre-conference seminar shares useful information to benefit the "boots-in-the-barn" veterinarian. While there are no formal proceedings papers for these practice tips, the participants have made their presentation slides available as part of the Swine Information Library. If your membership in the AASV is current, you can access them here: https://www.aasv.org/library/swineinfo/series_index.php?id=12#106. Presentations include:

• You want me to do what?? The crazy world known as the show pig industry! - Amy Woods
