SwineSaliva analysis to detect respiratory disorders
At many farms, when suddenly health problems occur, the pig farmer and the veterinarian look for solutions without having access to the results of any analyses. Analyses generally takes too long and pig farmers often consider them too expensive because they yield little result. The alternative for respiratory disorders is to conduct a saliva analysis for piglets and growers. This is cheaper method and the results are quickly available.

SustainabilityAssuring the existence of pig farmers in South-East Asia
In the pig farming business, healthy and strong piglets form the basis of healthy porkers. This is not just about giving the right, high-quality feeds, but also about carefully planned feed management. Another essential aspect is to inseminate sows with high-quality sperm. That is why we have opened our own sperm station in 2016. This way, we are able to guarantee independence and a bright future for sow farms in South-East Asia.
