Baby Care Milk Feeding System for piglets in farrowing pens
Automatic milk feeding system for distribution of fresh milk to piglets

HIGHER SURVIVAL RATE

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, they gain a higher weight at weaning. When the piglets are 1 kilo heavier at weaning, they grow faster after weaning, giving a higher survival rate.

BABY CARE HELPS REDUCE THE NUMBER OF NURSING SOWS

When the number of piglets per litter increases, it is essential to ensure that all the piglets have enough milk to reduce mortality.

Baby Care supplies extra milk so the piglets can drink the sow's milk and the milk powder. It means you avoid having additional nursing sows, thus reducing the number of farrowing pens and your production costs and saving man-hours.

Advantages of the Baby Care milk system:

  • You can get 1-2 extra piglets per sow per year
  • Plus 1 kg per pig at weaning
  • Higher survival rate
  • Less medicine consumption
  • Good hygiene
  • Fewer nursing sows
