The saddlebags were uncomfortable, heavy and their service life was short. All this made him design a tool (the <strong>Cubricer<\/strong> device) with a resistant material that made the insemination task easier, giving priority to the fact that the sow should feel comfortable while wearing the device and that the farmer should carry out he insemination in an easier, quicker and more efficient way.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Arco de inseminaci\u00f3n &#039;Cubricer&#039;, nominado al Premio Porc d&#039;Or Especial Zoetis Innovaci\u00f3n\" width=\"980\" height=\"551\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/20_tP-GEJuk?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Features of the Cubricer device <\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Currently, sow insemination is post-cervical, but this kind of insemination is difficult to carry out in gilts, in which the introduction of the catheter as close as possible to the uterus is very difficult or is not possible.

The Cubricer device saves time during the daily work routine, because the semen dose remains in its position without help, and this allows the sow to absorb the semen on its own and at the pace of its contractions (self-insemination), allowing the worker to inseminate several sows at the same time.<\/p>\n<p>At\u00a0 <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/agroalimentariachico.com\/\">ACH<\/a><\/strong> we wish all the luck in the world to Mr. Alfredo Galindo\u2019s farm in the <span style=\"color: #000080;\"><a style=\"color: #000080;\" href=\"https:\/\/premiosporcdor.com\/\"><strong>Premios Porc d\u2019Or<\/strong><\/a>. <\/span>They deserve it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What is Cubricer?
