SM1968Farms - 1/7/2026 18:32  Other than satisfying the animal do gooders it has helped the quality of life for my sows.



Just curious if you have production records of P/S/Y and sow mortality from before and after the transition?

All the data I've ever seen suggest that open pen gestation (vs crates) reduces P/S/Y and increases sow mortality.
