“Dead” loss ratio (DLR)^† compared to Forgone Revenue* of Cull Sow swine in 46 slaughter plants with temperature data within 100 miles of plant location for United States from 2010 to 2015. *Forgone Revenue is estimated from increased condemnations in observed data above the expected value provided by a zero-inflated negative binomial generalized linear mixed model excluding hot and cold temperatures. ^†DLR calculated by number of “dead” condemnations divided by total swine multiplied by 100.
