“…In addition, our results identified distance to the main road as associated with increased chances for PRRSV circulation. This has led concern by the swine industry (Reicks, 2019), since vehicle movement has demonstrated to have a significant impact on increasing the transmission of several other diseases, for example, African Swine Fever (ASF) (Mur, Martínez‐López, & Sánchez‐Vizcaíno, 2012), Classical Swine Fever (CSF) (Bronsvoort et al., 2008) and for Foot‐and‐Mouth Disease (Muroga et al., 2013). Our findings indicate that farms located at 0.5–0.7 km from major roads were more easily exposed to PRRSV; therefore, this distance could be used to make decisions about routes used for pig movement, the enhancement of on‐farm biosecurity of sites within this range of distances to major roads, and in future expansions of operations new buildings could be built beyond 0.7 km from the main road.…”
