Effects of Soybean Meal Concentration in Lactating Sow Diets on Sow and Litter Performance [PDF]
A total of 131 sows (Line 241; DNA, Columbus, NE) were used in a study to evaluate the effect of increasing soybean meal concentration in lactating sow diets on sow and litter performance.

Splenic Hamartoblastoma in a Sow.
Multiple lesions of splenic hamartoblastoma were found incidentally in a 2- to 3-year-old crossbred sow. The predominant cells, characterized by extreme nuclear irregularity and hemidesmosome-like structures, were considered to be derived from reticular cells of the spleen, and demonstrated infiltrative growth.

Candidate Genes Associated with Sow Longevity [PDF]
The economic efficiency of swine operations is always a topic of discussion for pork producers and allied industries especially now when feed grain prices are being pushed higher as the demand for bio-fuels increases.

In swine farming 15 to 25 percent of piglets die before weaning, and that poses a serious economic problem for hog producers. Sometimes a sow will accidentally crush her piglets or she will reject or abuse a piglet.
