Flowchart describing the processing steps during exploration and analysis of biosecurity and husbandry practices survey data collected of 176 swine farms in Colombia in 2016-17. Univariate and multivariate analysis were performed on survey data after variable selection. Multiple Correspondence Analysis (MCA), Hierarchical cluster Analysis (HCA) and General Linear Modeling (GLM) were performed. The number of variables (n) included at each step of the process is indicated. Variable selection for MCA and HCA was based on the cos2 value, while for GLM was based on p value by Chi square test
