A research project led by the University of Córdoba and the University of Castilla-La Mancha is aiming to develop control measures against animal tuberculosis in extensive production systems, focusing on the Iberian pig breeding process. The project involves analyzing the network of space-time interactions between pigs and other animals during the 'montanera' period, when pigs graze freely and are at risk of contracting diseases from other livestock and wild animals. The research uses geolocation collars to monitor the movements and interactions of various species, with a particular focus on wild ungulates. The findings will be used to develop management measures to control the transmission of pathogens in extensive livestock farms. The project is part of larger research efforts that include estimating the exposure of pigs and farms to tuberculosis-causing bacteria, as well as validating a new method of tuberculosis diagnosis and evaluating the biosecurity levels of livestock farms.

A research team from the University of Córdoba and the University of Castilla-La Mancha is working on a project to implement control measures against animal tuberculosis in extensive production systems. In the autumn months, coinciding with the optimum maturation of the acorn, the last phase of the Iberian pig breeding begins, the "montanera", the period in which the animals graze freely in the pasture. This phase is essential to maximize the quality of acorn-fed Iberian products, but it also carries risks. During the montanera, pigs interact directly or indirectly with other livestock species (cows, goats or sheep) and with different species of wild ungulates (wild boar or deer, among others) sharing space and natural resources, but also communicable diseases. With the aim of helping in the implementation of control measures for these diseases, a research team from the University of Córdoba and the University of Castilla-La Mancha has analyzed the network of space-time ...
