“Unfortunately, most of the processes - if not all - are human-driven. When you have people breeding sows, why are there farms with the same genetics and semen source not performing at the same farrowing rate level? Just because in one farm they do a better process than the other farm. The same thing happens with biosecurity and I think today we're living that same scenario with Covid.” Dr. Cesar Corzo
