Increasing Challenges Faced by Producers in Asia: Water Usage and Manure Management

Producers in Asia are facing increasing challenges, leading them to seek better and more efficient ways to use natural resources and manage manure. Studies show that Crystal Spring wet/dry feeders deliver huge water savings compared to traditional dry feeders, resulting in up to 40% less water disappearance.

It’s not hard to explain this number. Wet/dry feeding with our efficient Adaptive-Flow™ nipple technology provides consistent water flow, delivers the correct amount of water for each phase of the pigs’ growth and allows all water to be fully consumed by the pigs. Any excess water not drunk when the pig triggers the water nipple is simply mixed with feed and consumed.

Wet/dry feeding also decreases the need for auxiliary water nipples, which we know are a big source of wastage. In those systems, all the water that is wasted—either because pigs use the auxiliary nipples to play, to cool down or just because those nipples usually present a very inconsistent and high water flow—ends up in the pit and increases liquids in the manure, demanding more effort and a higher cost for removal.

More and more we see Asian producers seeking technologies to help them address those challenges and our Adaptive-Flow™ nipples are an excellent solution. Whether used in our wet/dry feeders or applied as bite nipples in auxiliary water sources, our Adaptive-Flow™ watering solutions are a great resource to help producers save water and manage their barns more efficiently.

The push for more efficient and sustainable ways to use natural resources in pig production is here to stay so we are rethinking installations and equipment to meet the demands and expectations of our consumers.
