Prolapse causes lots of damage to sows, to swine productions, and to producers. So having a deeper understanding of its causes can help us find solutions for the issue by combining genetics, nutritional, and management strategies. In the second part of this two-episode series, Jared Harshman talks about collagen, explores hormone results found in the analysis of the incidence of prolapse, explains the differences between prolapsed and non-prolapsed sows, and discusses the influence of previous litter performance on the incidence of prolapse.
