Modern hyper-prolific sows with larger litters and leaner carcasses are more susceptible to lactation failure.

Host Clayton Chastain interviews Dr. Jamie Studer, a postdoctoral researcher at Iowa State University, about her work on postpartum dysgalactia syndrome (PDS) in sows. They discuss the critical importance of the transition period from late gestation to lactation, the causes and economic impact of PDS, and the challenges of researching sow metabolism compared to dairy cattle.
