Precision technologies in pig farming

Abstract

The transition to digital, intelligent production technologies and robot-based systems is one of the priorities of the scientific and technological development of Russia. The extensive use of information technology and electronic automated systems is the basis of an intelligent manufacturing execution system that replaces a person, especially for objective and precise control over the quantity and quality of feed given to animals. Modern genetics has achieved a substantial increase in the number of piglets per litter, which does not allow a sow to fully meet their biological needs with her own milk. To preserve the health and high performance of all piglets born, effective and economically feasible methods and technologies are needed. The objective of the research was to analyze the efficiency of applying the components of precision pig farming in piglet feeding when using the feeding systems for suckling piglets CulinaCup and CulinaFlexpro. Their application has a positive effect on the growth and survival rate of suckling piglets due to proper and timely feeding. The systems meet all sanitary and hygienic standards and ensure efficient raising of piglets in large litters.
