Abstract: Post-weaning fertility failures occur more often in parity 1 (P1) sows due to high metabolic demands for lactation and their inability to meet energy requirements for maintenance, growth, and reproduction. We hypothesized that body condition… read more here.

Abstract: Abstract Forty sows (PIC Camborough 1050) from a single farm were randomly selected at 112 days of gestation to evaluate if gut bacteria transverse the blood system of the sow to deposit gut microbiota into… read more here.

Abstract: BackgroundOur objectives were 1) to compare reproductive performance across parities and lifetime performance of parity 1 sows in six weaning-to-first-mating interval groups (WMI 0–3, 4, 5, 6, 7–20 and 21 days or more), 2) to determine… read more here.
