“Unfortunately, most of the processes - if not all - are human-driven. When you have people breeding sows, why are there farms with the same genetics and semen source not performing at the same farrowing rate level? Just because in one farm they do a better process than the other farm. The same thing happens with biosecurity and I think today we're living that same scenario with Covid.” – Dr....

I looked at some data a while back and hit 67 reasons for calls and deaths and 30% of others...

"One of the big things I've done with my team is to empower them.

“[Starting in a production system] and just trying to mesh all that knowledge together was difficult upfront.
