Swine Artificial Insemination For Beginners: Ordering And Caring For Semen, Dennis Worwod
All Current Publications
Sows and gilts are usually bred twice, with 12 to 24 hours hours between inseminations. For this reason, boar studs will not ship less than two doses of semen.

All Current Publications
Heat detection is the most important and time consuming part of an A.I. breeding program. Your goal is to recognize when the sow or gilt reaches “standing heat,” which is the period when she stands still and rigid when you put weight on her loin.

Animal feeding rations have long included carbohydrates as a primary constituent. Grains are included in most animal fattening rations, and the by-products of sugar beets have been used f or many years in livestock feeding (Kutish 1950 b). The use of molasses in commercial feed mixes in 1899 made possible its extended use in animal feeding practices (Hall 1950).

The feeding of large amounts of beet molasses to young hogs causes a condition that is characterized by a wobbly gait, and that is frequently fatal. Hog raisers have apparently recognized this condition for a number of years, since a number of farmers have reported it in their animals. Some farmers have also reported breeding failures and abortions when beet molasses was fed to brood sows. Consequently, beet molasses has not been considered a good hog feed by Utah raisers.
Beet molasses is a relatively cheap source of carbohydrates and could be used advantageously in pork production if the cause …

Bulletin No. 101 - Feeding Experiments With Cattle, Sheep, Swine And Horses, R. W. Clark
UAES Bulletins
Since the establishment of sugar factories in this State, considerable inquiry has arisen regarding the food value of sugar beets and the by-products of the factories. The last publication from this station on the subject was Bulletin No. 90 which gave the results of feeding sugar beet pulp and molasses in various combinations to sheep and steers. Previous to the appearing of this publication some experimental work had been carried out in feeding sugar beets to swine and sugar beet pulp and beet molasses to sheep. The results secured seemed to warrant further work in the same direction and in …
