It’s becoming increasingly common to hear that sows’ condition is crucial for their production. This applies not only to the upcoming litter, but also to their lifetime production.
This is especially true for the modern sow, such as a TN70 from TopigsNorsvin.
Various tools are available for measuring sow condition, such as measuring tapes, calipers, etc. But measuring alone isn’t enough. Furthermore, farms are getting larger, free-range sows are mandatory almost everywhere in the world (or are about to become mandatory), and labor is becoming scarcer.
That’s why we developed the VMS together with our sister company. A walk-through scale that automatically records the sow’s weight every day and is equipped with a camera, making it ready for vision technology combined with AI.
The VMS can be easily installed in any barn. All it requires is a power connection and a Wi-Fi network.
RedVan Solutions handles the data processing entirely, so you don’t have to worry about a thing.
