Camera technology has benefits in pig barns


Listen Later

Cameras are used for many purposes. They are frequently used to monitor such things as traffic flows, weather patterns and even to provide security in a number of different ways. But what about in pig barns? What benefit might camera technology and the resulting data collection have when it comes to managing pigs in a breeding program?

Joining us today to talk about camera technology in the pig barn is Kristine Marinsen, a researcher in the health and behavior platform of Toppigs Norsvin. 

This episode of Feedstuffs in Focus is sponsored by Topigs Norsvin, the second largest swine genetics company in the world. The TN70 is the flagship parent sow of Topigs Norsvin, described as being a self-reliant sow capable of raising her own pigs and requiring less human intervention in the farrowing house. Visit tn70.topigsnorsvin.com to see what producers are saying about their experience with the TN70.
