Baby Care Milk Feeding System
Automatic milk feeding system for distribution of fresh milk to piglets
HIGHER SURVIVAL RATE FOR PIGLETS
Baby Care is an automatic milk feeding system that distributes fresh milk in a farrowing unit. The system ensures that all piglets have enough milk.
When the piglets have constant access to milk, it results in a higher weight at weaning. When the piglets are 1 kilo heavier at weaning, they have a faster growth after weaning and this gives a higher survival rate.
BABY CARE HELPS REDUCING THE NUMBER OF NURSING SOWS
When the amount of piglets per litter is increased, it is important to ensure that all the piglets get access to enough milk in order to reduce the mortality.
Baby Care supplies extra milk, so the piglets can drink both the sow's milk and the milk powder. It means you avoid having extra nursing sows, and thus reduce the amount of farrowing pens, your production costs and save man-hours.
Extra milk supply for piglets - 3 key benefits:
- Reduce the number of nursing sows:
Experience a notable increase in the number of weaning pigs, saving up to 12% in nursing sows. This improvement translates to a 2.9% rise in production results.
- Higher Production Results:
Enhanced welfare leads to more weaners. For farms with 1,000 sows, achieving 35 piglets per sow per year, our system can help to gain an additional 1,015 weaners annually.
- Optimize milk powder consumption:
The small diameter of the pipes means fewer residues and less waste. Combined with the automatic cleaning procedure, we estimate you can save 60 to 200 grams of milk powder per piglet annually. For a farm with 1,000 sows and 35 piglets per sow, this translates to savings of up to 2.000 to 7,000 kilograms of milk powder annually.
