SDSU Animal Science Department presents 10 swine research abstracts

BROOKINGS, S.D. – South Dakota State University swine researchers from the Department of Animal Science will present 10 research abstracts at the Midwest Section meeting of the of the American Dairy Science Association (ADSA) and the American Society of Animal Science (ASAS) in Omaha, Nebraska, from March 13-15.

The Department of Animal Science recently opened the new South Dakota State University Swine Education and Research Facility on Oct. 1, 2016.

“Our new Swine Education and Research Facility was designed to allow students and faculty to complete world-class research projects,” says Dr. Joe Cassady, SDSU Animal Science Department Head. “This new facility will be an invaluable resource for our research goals to address real production questions and to evaluate new technologies for modern pig production.”



SDSU swine researchers will present the following research at this year’s meeting:
