HOUSING TECHNOLOGY in pig farming
Provide a comfortable and healthy living environment for your pigs

Housing technology for pig farming refers to the various types of housing and management systems used to provide a comfortable and healthy living environment for pigs. These systems may vary depending on factors such as the breed, age, size, and number of pigs being raised, as well as the local climate and other environmental conditions.

The choice of housing technology for pig farming depends on a range of factors, including pig breed, environmental conditions, and the goals of the farm. Good pig housing technology should provide a comfortable and healthy environment for the pigs while also allowing for efficient and sustainable management practices.

Below, you can find practical information about the modern solutions within Sows Insemination, Farrowing Technologies, Digital Solutions, Robot Cleaning, Indoor Farm Environment and Biosecurity.

Insemination:

Automatic Sow Stimulation

Automatic Sow Stimulation

The stimulation of sows is done in two stages – in 2 programs. The first program, which is started when Stimulus is turned on, will stimulate the sow roughly with some heavy pressure on the back and in the loin area.

Loose Farrowing

Loose Farrowing

WELSAFE is a farrowing pen for loose nursing sows, where the sow can be fixated during farrowing. The farrowing pen’s unique features help to reduce piglet mortality and to increase the weight on weaning compared to the traditional farrowing pens.


Digital Solutions:

APP for a more efficient farm

APP for a more efficient farm

Being a farmer in 2023 requires a lot. For example, the farms must be modern and attractive for employees; they must follow all legislations, have high efficiency, handle animal welfare, and at the same time ensure high production results.

Digital Management Systems

Digital Management Systems

Simple digital solutions are essential to run a modern pig production. Keeping track of all farm parameters manually is time-consuming, especially if you run more than one farm.

Robot Cleaning:

Washing Robot

Washing Robot

ProCleaner X100 from Washpower is a robust, flexible, and reliable washing robot for cleaning pig houses and improving biosecurity. We spoke with Jens Gydike Fly to understand why a washing robot benefits his pig farm.

Automated Cleaning

Automated Cleaning

It makes good sense to reduce hard manual labor with automatization, but it will only work if the equipment is simple and easy to use. The optimal solution to cleaning is a non-complicated washing robot that the staff can use directly.

Biosecurity:

Biosecurity

Biosecurity

Protecting commodities against contamination is essential, especially in crops used for feeding livestock. Here we talk about biosecurity, which is preventive measures to reduce the risk of transmission of infectious diseases.
