A promising model for sow lameness detection

Researchers argue that developing a 2-dimensional stick model to simulate sows walking on concrete floors helps detect sow lameness. Sow lameness is one of the major concerns in the swine industry. It affects affecting sow welfare and productivity. Visual scoring is the most common method to evaluate lameness. This is which time and labour intensive and is prone to observer error.
