Dr. Jennifer Brown: Stress in Group-Housed Sows | Ep. 66 The Swine Health Blackbelt Podcast

Group housing in swine production promotes social interactions but can lead to stress due to competition for resources and aggressive behavior. Effective management, including proper space and enrichment, alleviates stress and enhances animal welfare. To shed light on this matter, I talked to Dr. Jennifer Brown about her research on swine welfare, especially in group housing, and strategies to mitigate stress under mixed conditions.
