WELSAFE - Freedom Farrowing Pen
Healthy conditions for sows and piglets - Benefits for you as a farmer
The Welsafe Freedom Farrowing Pen offers a proven, welfare-focused solution that creates a more natural and comfortable environment for sows and their piglets during the farrowing period. Its innovative design maximizes space utilization for animals and caretakers alike, improving both animal welfare and operational efficiency.
Prioritizing Animal Welfare: A Win-Win for Livestock and Farmers
Modern pig farming increasingly emphasizes animal welfare—not only for ethical reasons but also for the tangible benefits it brings to productivity and sustainability.
Providing sows with the freedom to move and express natural behaviors reduces the risk of physical and behavioral issues, leading to healthier animals and decreasing the need for medical interventions. This proactive approach enhances overall herd health and contributes to a more sustainable farming operation.
Physical activity is essential for sows. Allowing them to move freely within the pen promotes better digestion and overall health, resulting in stronger piglets with improved vitality. This not only benefits animal welfare but also positively impacts farm economics and environmental sustainability.
Key Advantages of the Welsafe System:
Enhanced Sow Comfort and Health: Freedom to stand, lie down, and interact with piglets reduces stress and improves overall well-being.
Improved Piglet Development: Increased opportunities for movement and social interaction promote healthier growth and development.
Operational Efficiency: Thoughtful design facilitates easier access for caretakers, streamlining daily tasks and improving workflow.
Sustainable Farming Practices: Healthier animals and reduced need for interventions contribute to a more sustainable and environmentally friendly farming operation.
