Mobile farrowing huts for sows and piglet
Common outdoor cage-free production systems for pigs do not tackle the manifold aspects of animal and farmer welfare. These systems have many limitations that include piglet mortality due to crushing by the sow and climate issues, difficult pasture rotation, and safe work conditions for farmers.
Mobile farrowing huts are designed to improve housing conditions of sows and piglets and to increase welfare and safety of animals and farmers.
