Sow feeding – liquid
Everything for mother and child!
The sow must receive the best possible care, monitoring and support, especially in the farrowing area. All of the parameters need to be right: enough energy, protein, vitamins, minerals, water and fibre.
Alongside pneumatic feeding, liquid sow feeding is one of the best feeding methods available for meeting these criteria for sows. The target is strong farrowing performance with a high level of milk production.
TEWE has stood out with its powerful, durable and long-lasting liquid feeding technology for decades. The feeding computer with CAN bus technology boasts all of the program and automation options offered by modern automation: A central feeding computer meticulously documents and monitors all the key data on behaviour, weight and feed conversion in order to continually optimise the feeding programs.
As a result, sow farmers are seeing an increase in efficiency and profitability with liquid sow feeding. Liquid feeding also contributes to the wellbeing of the animals.
We refer to liquid feeding and, optionally, pneumatic feeding for sows.
In conclusion
Liquid feeding is an optimal solution for meeting the needs of mother and child in the farrowing area. Precise dosing and distribution of nutrients ensures high milk production by the sows, which in turn improves the health and wellbeing of the piglets. The closed feeding system improves hygiene in the pen and reduces the risk of disease. In addition, modern technologies such as feeding computers enable efficient management and monitoring of the feeding processes, which leads to increased efficiency and cost-effectiveness. Overall, liquid sow feeding leads to better health outcomes for sows and piglets while also cutting production costs.
Benefits
- High milk production: Liquid sow feeding helps ensure high milk production by the sows. Provision of optimal nutrition helps meet the sow’s needs during lactation, which in turn promotes the health and wellbeing of the piglets.
- Improved sow and piglet health: A balanced diet through liquid feeding supports the health of the sows, and helps prevent disease and health problems. This positively impacts the animals’ quality of life and the farm’s productivity.
- Reduced costs and less use of medication: By providing sows and piglets with optimised nutrition to improve their health, the need for medicines is reduced. This leads to a reduction in veterinary expenses and production costs.
Features
Optimal nutrition:
Liquid sow feeding guarantees precise dosing and distribution of feed to ensure the animals receive optimal nutrition. This aids in healthy development and optimal performance.
Hygienic feeding:
Feeding is carried out in a closed system, which reduces the risk of contamination and improves hygiene in the pen. This helps prevent disease and maintain the health of sows and piglets.
Efficient management and monitoring:
Liquid sow feeding enables efficient management and monitoring of feeding processes. By using modern technologies such as feeding computers with CAN bus technology, all relevant data can be monitored and documented to ensure an optimal feed supply.
