Abstract
Abstract The primary objective of this study was to assess the potential economic losses incurred by pig farms as a result of respiratory diseases. These diseases, often arising from the combined effects of viral and bacterial pathogens, can impose significant financial burdens and compromise pig health. The adverse effects of respiratory diseases extend beyond animal health, directly diminishing farm profitability. The research was conducted on five commercial farrow-to-finish pig farms located in the South Bačka District, with sow herd sizes ranging from 300 to 1,150. A comprehensive questionnaire was administered to collect data on farm management practices, health protocols, and production performance. Respiratory diseases in pigs represent a major source of economic losses, undermining both animal welfare and the financial viability of farms. Implementing effective management and preventive measures is essential to mitigating these losses and sustaining the health and productivity of pig operations.
