Christina Sejersen has been running her farm in 21 years, and finally, she knows how to optimize the farrowing pen. An ingenious milk system has made a big difference!
Christina Sejersen and her husband are running the farm ‘Bjerget’ in Viborg, Denmark, where they hold 1150 sows and yearly produces 38.500 slaughter pigs.
»In 21 years I have not been able to milk my sows completely in the farrowing pen. I have tried differ- ent options and never found the right solution«, says farmer Christina Sejersen. »When I got the option to use the milk system Pump'n'Grow, I was open for giv- ing it a test run. It is a low price solution and I loved it from the beginning«, she says.
The piglets are at least 2 pounds heavier Christina Sejersen has been using the milking sys- tem and milk from Agro Korn since November 2017, and she is impressed with the results. Her piglets get through the farrowing pen 3-4 days faster. She only uses half of the nursing sows compared to earlier – and mortality has dropped 3% point.
RESULTS GAINED THROUGH THE USE OF THE PUMP’N’GROW MILK SYSTEM:
+ 250-300 kg extra pig per farrowing pen + Increased growth +70-100g (in climate stable)
More piglets on a yearly basis
The piglets can supply with the system – and simulta- neously still get milk from the sow. It’s advantageous for both the sow and her piglets. »It has been great. The piglets are at least 2 pounds bigger know when ready for the climate stable. Furthermore, I produce more piglets per sow on a yearly basis«.
Saving time and money
Christina concludes that even though she spend more money on milk powder, she uses less on ex- pensive starter feed.»It is far easier to nurse the far- rowing pen. I am such a big proponent that I would never not use the milk system. It saves me time and money and the piglets thrive«.
+ Reduced mortality in the farrowing pen + Weaning increase + Easy weaning
+ Effective usage of the farrowing pen + Efficiency progress (3-4 piglets/sow/year)
