Veterinarians that work with pigs make important contributions to society both locally and globally by ensuring sufficient levels of safe food are available, while maintaining the health and welfare of pigs. In addition, pig veterinarians are extending the scope and delivery of veterinary science by becoming involved in training programs for pig producers, quality assurance programs, and establishing and managing production systems and global disease prevention.
