The SPF System

SPF (Specific Pathogen Free) is a closed production and health system for pigs with established rules of infection control, health control, and transport of pigs between herds.

All farms that comply with the rules of the SPF Health Status Department (SPF-SuS) gain a SPF status and a health declaration.

The three main points of any farm health status are:

1. Safety level
2. Health declarations and
3. Additional information on health status
