CANADA - A multi-disciplinary multi-institutional team of researchers expects to be ready by March to demonstrate new technology designed to speed up the washing of swine transport trailers, writes Bruce Cochrane.A team of researchers from the University of Saskatchewan, the Prairie Swine Centre, VIDO-InterVac and the Prairie Agricultural Machinery Institute is working in partnership with Swine Innovation Porc to reduce the time it takes and the costs associated with washing and disinfecting swine transportation equipment and ultimately automating the system.

　　布魯斯·科克倫(Bruce Cochrane)寫道，為展現一項新技術，加拿大的一個由多機構、多專業人員組成的研究團隊預計在三月前做好準備，該技術旨在提高運輸生豬拖車清洗的效率。來自薩斯喀徹溫大學、大草原養豬中央、疫苗與傳染病組織-國際疫苗中央(VIDO-InterVac)、大草原農業機械研究所的科研團隊，和養豬創新項目組織合作，一起努力，縮短清洗運輸生豬拖車的光陰，并減少運輸生豬設備在清洗和消毒上的相關成本，最終實現自動化系統。
