IMPROVING piglet survival and reducing pre-weaning mortality rates can significantly increase herd productivity and performance, which in turn may help boost business profitability. Join Farming Connect and highly respected pig vet Bob Stevenson to learn more about improving piglet survival rates.
Bob will focus on topics such as pre-farrowing management of the sow, improving the farrowing process to minimise still births and piglet care at birth to maximise resilience and reduce mortality. Pre-weaning nutrition and management with the aim of weaning heavy pigs will also be discussed, along with genetic selection for producing high-quality piglets.
