The Squeal_0250: The Importance of HNS (Heat No Service)_Part 2 The Squeal

On this episode of The Squeal, host Brie Quick, PIC Technical Services Manager, continues the Heat No Service (HNS) conversation by building on the foundation laid in Episode 1 and taking a deeper dive into practical application and real-world impact. Joined again by Sergio Canavate, PIC Applied Repro Technical Services Director, and Jennifer Patterson, University of Alberta, this episode shifts from the "why" behind HNS to the "how." Together, they unpack what effective implementation looks like on farm, common challenges teams face when refining gilt development protocols, and how to evaluate whether HNS is truly driving the outcomes you expect. Be sure to tune in as the Heat No Service series continues to connect science, management, and long-term profitability on The Squeal.
