British Pig Executive hosts pig health conference

The British Pig Executive recently held a "Two-Tonne-Sow (2TS) Focus on Health" conference for UK pig producers.

Animal nutrition expert Paul Toplis was among speakers to address the pig industry on how healthy pigs use feed more efficiently. Attendees were also told about other areas of focus to ensure growth, such as adequate access to feed and water for all pigs, stocking density, environment and lighting, feed intake monitoring, pellet quality, and wet feed volume, frequency and fermentation.
