The rules and regulations below are currently under review and have the potential to change in the future. However, for the time being, please be sure to follow these guidelines when purchasing swine from other states for the 2010 fair.
1. Pigs entering the state in small groups (show pigs) must be individually identified with a state-of-origin silver ear tag or a RFID tag.
2. Feeder show pigs originating from out-of state must be accompanied by a Certificate of Veterinary Inspection (CVI) issued within 60 days of transport.
3. If pigs originate from a Pseudorabies (PRV) qualified herd, the herd number must be on the CVI, otherwise, pigs must have an individual PRV negative blood test within 30 days prior to transport.
4. If pigs originate from a Brucellosis-free state, no brucellosis test is required.
5. Pigs entering the state without a CVI and test (if necessary) are in violation of the law.
