What challenges and opportunities will shape pig production in the coming years? HC Gæmelke and Christian Fink Hansen take the hot seat for an open conversation about the industry’s most important issues. You will also get the opportunity to ask questions and actively participate in the debate.
Which decisions have the greatest impact on profitability in finisher pig production? We focus on optimal slaughter weight, delivery strategy, and high productivity – and examine how to keep costs down without compromising performance. The aim is to find the right balance between payment price, productivity, and production costs.
A good working environment and continuous skills development are essential for attracting, retaining, and developing skilled employees. Julie and Bente share their experiences from Vedby Højgaard, where they work purposefully with both. Hear what they prioritise in their daily work and what they have learned along the way.
Three farm managers from Masterclass 2024 share their journey into their role and the experiences they have gained along the way. Hear about managing pigs across multiple sites, handling a wide range of responsibilities, and leading employees from diverse cultural backgrounds. A personal insight into the challenges, opportunities, and lessons that come with the responsibility.
Monitoring water consumption in the farrowing unit opens new opportunities to support high milk yield. Sows’ drinking patterns change if they are not fully fit after farrowing, making it possible to react earlier. At the same time, monitoring can quickly reveal faulty water valves. Learn more about sows’ drinking behaviour and how insights from water usage can be translated into practical actions in daily management.
Influenza is part of everyday life – in both humans and pigs. But what does it mean in practice on farm, and how can you monitor developments? Get the latest insights from the University of Copenhagen, including national influenza surveillance and an explanation of how influenza viruses move between birds, pigs, and humans. We put research and monitoring into perspective and connect it to practical farm management.
Based on trial data from a wide range of herds over the past 10 years, we take a closer look at what characterises the best-performing sows. How much feed do they consume, how many piglets do they nurse, and how are maternal ability and litter growth related? You will also gain insight into what drives success in subsequent reproduction, and how this knowledge can be used to optimise feeding strategies in the farrowing unit.
