Denmark is the "fairy tale kingdom" that we longed for when we were young, and it is actually a "pig kingdom"! We all know the fairy tale "The Little Girl Who Sold Matches", but we don't know that Denmark is a pig powerhouse, do you know why Denmark is called a pig powerhouse?
The Danish pig industry is strong because of the following characteristics:
Denmark's breeding pigs are good, pork exports are high, pig mortality is low, labor costs are low, automation is high, antibiotics are used less, there are management and quarantine regulations, and the concept of welfare breeding is widely popularized.
Speaking of welfare breeding, what we feel more deeply in China is sow breeding. In order to prevent pregnant sows from fighting and miscarrying, maximizing the use of land, etc., most of the domestic sows are raised in the limit pen, but at the same time, it also brings negative effects such as high incidence of sow trotters and increased difficult birth rates. Sows have stayed in a small space all their lives, lack of activity, endure diseases, production difficulties, but Denmark uses a device called "sow electronic feeding station" to raise sows, welfare feeding, free activities, free feeding, not only did not waste pig farm resources, but the average sow PSY in the country was raised to 30!
Then we can look at the PSY value of our Chinese sows, which is only between 16-25. PSY refers to the number of weaned piglets that each sow can provide each year, which is a common indicator to measure the reproductive performance of sows.
If a 300-head sow farm, PSY difference of 5, then the number of piglets per year to be about 1500 pieces of difference, according to a piglet 500 pieces of calculation, then PSY more than 5, piglets can produce more than 750,000 income! In addition to effectively increasing the PSY value of sows, this breeding method in Denmark also greatly reduces the incidence of sows!
So danish sow electronic feeding equipment can bring so many benefits, is it also suitable for domestic use? Foreigners use knives and forks to eat, we Chinese use chopsticks to eat the same, excluding the factor of language barrier, Denmark's sow electronic feeding station is in line with their operating habits but not necessarily in line with our operating habits, and imported equipment is expensive, follow-up maintenance is difficult to guarantee.
In order to let the Chinese people also use advanced sow feeding equipment and break the price monopoly of foreign breeding equipment, Nanshang Agricultural Science and Technology began to independently develop small group breeding equipment suitable for domestic sows, after many upgrades and updates, and finally developed Xiaozhiqi - pregnancy, "sow electronic feeding station", for the pregnancy stage of breeding sows, can realize the group breeding of pregnant sows and individual fine feeding management.
(1) The design of the anti-congestion structure is more reasonable; Sow feeding is undisturbed to avoid scrambling leading to miscarriage;
(2) Big data management, clear and traceable feeding data, convenient and accurate feeding management;
(3) Early control of the fat is well controlled, the late feeding is accurate, and the piglets are born uniformly;
(4) Accurate identification of pigs, feeding is more accurate, can save 5%-8% of feed;
(5) The use of 304 stainless steel, hot-dip galvanizing process, stable performance and more reliable;
(6) Chinese panel, in line with the operating habits of the Chinese people;
(7) More than 20 basic functions such as efficient arch breaking are more comprehensive; Moreover, it can be customized according to the unique needs of different pig farms;
(8) The device supports networking, data cloud storage, support real-time viewing and control;
(9) From production to after-sales, the whole process of independent control.
In general, it not only effectively reduces labor costs, feeding is more scientific and accurate, but also improves the production performance of sows, and the service life of sows can be extended to 0.5-1 years, and the cost reduction and efficiency increase effect is significantly improved!

In fact, in Denmark, since 1997, a ban has been issued, not allowing new pig farms to use the positioning bar feeding method for pregnant sows. Since 2013, sows have been banned from using positioning pens for 4 weeks after breeding. A generally accepted view of the Danish pig industry is that through the scientific feeding mode design, pen design, and pig farm management design, it can avoid the negative impact of small group breeding on the production performance of sows to the greatest extent, and greatly improve the comprehensive benefits of sow breeding.
Whether it is about the feeding of sows or the standardization, industrialization and digital development of the pig industry, we have a long way to go, please pay attention to Xiaonan, and later take you to learn more about advanced breeding equipment and cutting-edge information of the pig industry!
