Regular monitoring of domestic swine, wild boar, horses and foxes or other indicator animals is an important tool for assessing changes in disease prevalence.

Breed societies which establish and maintain breeding books for purebred breeding animals of the bovine, porcine, ovine, caprine and equine species, as well as breeding operations other than private undertakings operating in closed production systems, which establish and maintain breeding registers for hybrid breeding pigs, should enter breeding animals in their breeding books or register them in their breeding registers without discrimination as regards the Member State of origin of the animals or their owners and, where this is provided for in the breeding programme, should classify those animals according to their merits.

‘private undertaking operating in a closed production system’ means a private undertaking with a breeding programme in which participate either no breeders or a restricted number of breeders who are bound to that private undertaking to accept from it the supply of hybrid breeding pigs or to supply hybrid breeding pigs to it.

Most private undertakings in the hybrid breeding pig sector have closed production systems and manage their own breeding stock.
