Item description from seller

Print on Demand. This book explores the effectiveness of sprinkling live hogs during transportation to reduce losses in the livestock industry. Sprinkling hogs en route has been found to reduce mortality by as much as 100%, reduce transit shrink by up to 3%, and increase hot slaughtered yield by up to 2% when compared to unsprinkled hogs. The author details three series of over-the-road comparison tests done over a 3-year period on truck-mounted sprinkling systems, evaluating possible advantages of sprinkling hogs on 5-. 11-, and 27-hour motor trips. The findings from these tests point to the decided advantage of sprinkling live hogs in transit, especially under specific conditions of time and temperature. This book is recommended for any shipper of hogs who operates in summer temperatures above 80° F. and is seeking to reduce transit losses. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.…
