    Love the podcast and especially that you talk about boar studs. We don’t get enough attention in the pig industry for such a vital part of production.

    In this episode (58) Jay talks about a CASA machine that sounds awesome. Could you please share the make and/or manufacturer? I’d like to upgrade our dinosaur system and could use a good recommendation like the one described. Thanks in advance and keep the discussions coming!
