Ribena and new feed additive eliminated his post-wean check

摘要

Ribena in the water and a new feed additive in the creep have helped eliminate post-wean check on a Scottish pig farm.The video imaging system Qscan assesses the weight of pigs with 98 percent accuracy in the 350-sow herd at Roderic Bruce's Logierieve Farm at Udny in Aberdeenshire. It identified a drop in the weight of piglets immediately after weaning and this prompteda discussion on how the post-weaning check could be tackled.
