As a pig farmer, you need to know how to inject vaccines, dewormers and other medicines, says Prof Cheryl McCrindle. Injections: 1. Intramuscular in the hindquarter – not recommended as it bruises the meat, but can be used in breeding animals; 2. Intramuscular and subcutaneous in the neck; 3. Intravenous into the ear vein as the jugular is too deeply buried; 4. Subcutaneous above and behind the ear.
