Work with your NAHMS coordinator to determine the farm and week to sample.

Review the materials in the Field Handbook for detailed collection information.
Determine how many pens on the site contain late finisher pigs that are 20 weeks and older.
If less than 10 pens, collect samples from all pens for a maximum of 60 samples.
For example,
8 pens = 7 samples from each of 6 pens, 9 samples from 2 pens
2 pens = 30 samples from each pen
If 10 pens, collect 6 samples from each pen.
If more than 10 pens, randomly select 10.
Samples should fill the whirlpak bag at least 2 inches.
Label the bag and complete the Collection Form. Do not use the label to secure the bag closed.
Keep samples cool, pack with 4 ice packs each, and ship via Fed Ex within 24 hours of collection.
Send a copy of the Collection Form with each box of samples and send the original to your NAHMS Coordinator.

According to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, no persons are required to respond to a collection of information unless it displays a valid OMB control
number. The valid OMB control number for this information collection is 0579-. The time required to complete this information collection is estimated to
average 2 hours per response, including the time to review instructions, search existing data resources, gather the data needed, and complete and review
the information collected.
