Space in the farrowing quarters
2 commentsKnowing how to make the most of space in our farrowing rooms is a key point, not only when using foster sows, but also for increasing the age at weaning. The farrowing pen is the most expensive pen at the farm, and we must obtain the maximum possible efficiency out of it.

Stephengreat material! we also wean once a week, but we only have rooms for 50 sows each, and it's quite a challenge to match the farrowing in a specific time period.

Big rooms are probably cheaper and faster to clean, but they are less flexible when entering sow batches if AI/AO wants to be maintained!
