SOW MORTALITY PROJECT UPDATE 3-1-19 IOWA PORK INDUSTRY CENTER www.ipic.iastate.edu
THIS PROJECT IS SUPPORTED BY THE NATIONAL PORK BOARD PROJECT #17-224.
Overview: One hundred four sow farms representing an inventory of 386,338 sows, have submitted mortality records for 52 weeks starting on February 4, 2018 (week 6). The following figures summarize the distribution and variation of sow deaths across reporting sow farms.
Figure 1 (Above). Annualized rate of pelvic organ prolapse (POP) varied across sow farms during the project period from over 10% to 0.3%.
Figure 2 (Above). Annualized total mortality for reporting sow farms. The red portion of the bars represent the proportion of the sow mortalities that occurred that were not due to prolapse while the yellow portion of the bars indicates the proportion occurring due to prolapse.
