Dead piglets - Piglets like these, collected after one farrowing, are the main reasons for us doing this experiment on effects of the thermal environment on early piglet vitality. A relative high early mortality is a problem across many types of housing systems. The majority of piglets die witin the first two/three days, and the main reasons are… Lene Juul Pedersen Erik Jørgensen Jens Malmkvist Danish Institute of Agricultural Science Danmarks JordbrugsForskning

Why % of piglets die within three days after farrowing Mission Reduce the early mortality: at least 1 piglet per litter Typical Danish herd: kr. per year Dead piglets - Piglets like these, collected after one farrowing, are the main reasons for us doing this experiment on effects of the thermal environment on early piglet vitality. A relative high early mortality is a problem across many types of housing systems. The majority of piglets die witin the first two/three days, and the main reasons are…

What Develop a commercial farrowing pen with ¤ Birth detection, alarm in case of problem ¤ Dynamic control in critical periods, based on animal need ¤ Integrated pen design with feed-back ¤ Automated system: optimized management with less manpower Therefore we investigated if floor heating are able to increase the early vitality of piglets.

Who Researchers and business partners with essential biological and technical expertise Regardining behaviour, we focused on the latency to obtain first suckling, since the early suckling is important, so that the piglet receive heat, energy and early colostrum.
