Dialogue: 0,0:00:03.15,0:00:05.34,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and today we're here with Nate Jackman.
Dialogue: 0,0:00:05.34,0:00:10.34,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,He is a livestock specialist\Nwith MWI Veterinarian Supply.
Dialogue: 0,0:00:10.96,0:00:13.15,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Thanks for being with us today, Nate.
Dialogue: 0,0:00:13.15,0:00:13.98,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,- Thank you.
Dialogue: 0,0:00:13.98,0:00:16.42,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,- So you're out with farmers, producers,
Dialogue: 0,0:00:16.42,0:00:19.98,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,on a daily basis with your position.
Dialogue: 0,0:00:19.98,0:00:22.61,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Tell us a little bit about\Nwhat trends you're seeing.
Dialogue: 0,0:00:22.61,0:00:25.38,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,What industry trends\Nare going on out there.
Dialogue: 0,0:00:25.38,0:00:27.97,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,- Well currently, one thing I've been
Dialogue: 0,0:00:27.97,0:00:30.63,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,talking a lot about with\Nveterinarians and producers
Dialogue: 0,0:00:30.63,0:00:33.20,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,is iron deficiency in baby pigs.
Dialogue: 0,0:00:33.20,0:00:35.78,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Something we've been\Ndoing is we've been going
Dialogue: 0,0:00:35.78,0:00:38.60,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,into some producers, into some sal units
Dialogue: 0,0:00:38.60,0:00:41.85,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and we've been doing hemoglobin tests
Dialogue: 0,0:00:41.85,0:00:44.17,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,on these baby pigs and\Nwhat we've been finding
Dialogue: 0,0:00:44.17,0:00:48.23,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,is that these pigs are\Nanemic and deficient in iron
Dialogue: 0,0:00:48.23,0:00:50.32,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and that we're trying to\Nget the word out there
Dialogue: 0,0:00:50.32,0:00:55.29,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,that the weening weight of\Na baby pig is a lot greater
Dialogue: 0,0:00:55.29,0:00:58.20,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,than it was 30, 40 years ago.
Dialogue: 0,0:00:58.20,0:01:00.32,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,But our protocol, there's a\Nlot of protocols out there
Dialogue: 0,0:01:00.32,0:01:02.52,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,still recommending the same amount of iron
Dialogue: 0,0:01:02.52,0:01:04.23,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,that we gave them 30-40 years ago.
Dialogue: 0,0:01:04.23,0:01:06.58,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So what we're doing is we're testing pigs,
Dialogue: 0,0:01:06.58,0:01:10.41,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,baby pigs, healthy, big, baby pigs
Dialogue: 0,0:01:10.41,0:01:12.35,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and we're finding that\Nthose pigs are anemic
Dialogue: 0,0:01:12.35,0:01:14.77,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and they need another dose of iron
Dialogue: 0,0:01:14.77,0:01:17.59,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,so what we're recommending\Nto veterinarians
Dialogue: 0,0:01:17.59,0:01:21.13,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and producers is that we\Ngive a 200 milligram dose
Dialogue: 0,0:01:21.13,0:01:23.67,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,at day one and we give\Nanother 200 milligram dose
Dialogue: 0,0:01:23.67,0:01:26.72,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,at day 14 and give that pig enough iron
Dialogue: 0,0:01:26.72,0:01:31.72,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,before we ween that pig and\Nsend it off to the nursery.
Dialogue: 0,0:01:31.73,0:01:33.79,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So that's one thing that\NI've been talking a lot about
Dialogue: 0,0:01:33.79,0:01:36.79,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and fortunately I work\Nwith a lot of producers
Dialogue: 0,0:01:36.79,0:01:39.64,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,that are open to that,\Nopen to the fact that,
Dialogue: 0,0:01:39.64,0:01:41.45,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,hey show me something that's not working
Dialogue: 0,0:01:41.45,0:01:43.93,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,that we're doing and let's try to fix it
Dialogue: 0,0:01:43.93,0:01:46.13,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and we've been doing pin side tests,
Dialogue: 0,0:01:46.13,0:01:49.81,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,in these sal units, and\Ntesting them with a HemoCue,
Dialogue: 0,0:01:49.81,0:01:51.76,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,a hemoglobin test unit.\N- Yep.
Dialogue: 0,0:01:51.76,0:01:54.41,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,- A two or three minute\Ntest, and we find out
Dialogue: 0,0:01:54.41,0:01:58.54,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,if that pig is deficient\Nor not and we kind of
Dialogue: 0,0:01:58.54,0:02:02.18,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,pick pigs at random and\Nthen we show the data
Dialogue: 0,0:02:02.18,0:02:05.43,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,to them afterwards and show them, that yes
Dialogue: 0,0:02:05.43,0:02:06.48,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,these pigs are anemic.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:06.48,0:02:09.17,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So that's one of the\Ntrends going on right now.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:09.17,0:02:12.70,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I don't think that out\Nof a half a dozen farms
Dialogue: 0,0:02:12.70,0:02:15.18,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,that we've been on that\Nwe really been surprised
Dialogue: 0,0:02:15.18,0:02:17.54,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,but we have surprised our producers
Dialogue: 0,0:02:17.54,0:02:19.78,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and I think we've changed a lot of minds
Dialogue: 0,0:02:19.78,0:02:21.54,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and a lot of protocols.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:21.54,0:02:23.44,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,- It sounds like diagnostics is playing
Dialogue: 0,0:02:23.44,0:02:27.20,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,a bigger role in what\Nyou're doing these days.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:27.20,0:02:29.27,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,- Yes ma'am, that diagnostics is big,
Dialogue: 0,0:02:29.27,0:02:31.76,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,because it's not so much the sales rep
Dialogue: 0,0:02:31.76,0:02:34.51,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,coming in here saying,\Nhey you gotta do this,
Dialogue: 0,0:02:34.51,0:02:36.71,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,you gotta do this, and they think okay,
Dialogue: 0,0:02:36.71,0:02:38.78,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,the sales rep just\Ntrying to sell products.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:38.78,0:02:42.18,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,What we're trying to do is\Nlet the science prove itself.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:42.18,0:02:45.97,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Here's the data and these\Nare your pigs we're testing
Dialogue: 0,0:02:45.97,0:02:49.09,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,so we're just letting the\Nscience speak for itself.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:49.09,0:02:51.27,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,- Very good, excellent, well thank you
Dialogue: 0,0:02:51.27,0:02:53.05,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,so much for your time today Nate.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:53.05,0:02:54.01,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,- Thank you.
