Upon medicating water, the doses should be repeated with a time interval that prevents plasma levels from dropping below the minimum effective concentration and exceeding the toxic concentration.

Mistakes to avoid when receiving, sampling, and storing raw materials in the pig feed mill.

This award recognizes farms that excel in the areas of quality, biosecurity, health, animal welfare, and reducing environmental impact.

This article provides an example of the cost per ton of CO₂ saved by reducing direct greenhouse gas emissions through daily slurry removal and anaerobic digestion.

A very simple and functional panel for moving pigs in finishing barns.

This innovative ramp designed by Hylife improves piglet welfare and reduces physical strain on farm workers during the weaning process.

We went to visit Piggly, a sustainable farm from an environmental, production, animal welfare, and economic perspective.

Which environmental factors can affect the feed conversion ratio? Enric Marco talks about the effects of temperature and humidity.... they can make us lose money.

Using solar energy to evaporate part of the water from the slurry can be of interest, avoiding volatization of ammonia. Solar drying can be combined with other strategies.

Slaughterhouses and cutting companies plan to automate their production lines but face numerous constraints that complicate implementation...

Removing nitrogen from slurry by transforming it into N₂ can be done biologically or by physical-chemical methods, the latter of which are in the experimental phase for slurry.

Continuous monitoring of sow weight has significantly improved feed use efficiency and sow longevity.

Although these strategies do not include anaerobic digestion in the combination of processes and therefore do not take advantage of its benefits, they do provide a higher organic matter content in the recovered effluents.

A simple piece of hardware could protect your piglet feeders from damage and save you time when cleaning.

In a surplus situation, the best option is to export the digestate obtained following anaerobic digestion. If the cost of transportation is not affordable, other alternatives should be considered. Here we explain which ones.

This corridor allows sows to be moved with minimal intervention from the staff.
