Dr. Gary Rohrer: Predicting Gilt Lameness | Ep. 326
In this episode of The Swine it Podcast Show, Dr. Gary Rohrer from the USDA Meat Animal Research Center shares findings from his latest research on identifying early indicators of lameness in gilts. He explains how pressure mats, camera-based behavior tracking, and emerging technologies can support genetic selection for sow longevity and productivity. Learn how movement data might change how producers manage and select replacement gilts. Listen now on all major platforms!
"The distance an animal travels daily in a finishing pen strongly correlates with its lameness outcomes later in the farrowing house."
Meet the guest: Dr. Gary Rohrer https://www.linkedin.com/in/gary-rohrer-83669633/ received his Ph.D. in Genetics from Texas A&M University and currently works as a Research Geneticist at the USDA Meat Animal Research Center. His work focuses on identifying genetic markers linked to swine traits like meat quality, reproductive performance, and lameness.
