The livestock farms associated with the project evaluate and verify the improvement measures proposed in the plans based on the ClassyFarm self-assessment questionnaires.

This installment focuses on the effects of heat stress on sow fertility.

Pigs are particularly vulnerable to heat stress due to their limited ability to dissipate body heat and genetic selection for higher productivity, which has reduced their heat tolerance. Improved technical results increase heat production, and today's lines produce 30% more heat than those in the 1980s.

How does heat stress affect our pigs? This four-part question-and-answer series will give us an in-depth understanding of this key aspect of pig production.

This article describes some practices for improving environmental control and the costs involved in their implementation.

This year's edition of the Swine Conference in honor of Dr. Allen D. Leman was a special 50th Anniversary event and took place September 21-24 at the Saint Paul RiverCentre Convention Center in Minnesota, USA.

Development of pig production towards large integrators and the spread of highly lethal diseases, such as ASF, have led to increased focus on biosecurity and methods to protect the assets associated with large pig units.

Scheduling certain tasks, monitoring spare parts stock, checking electrical elements - what does proper maintenance management consist of?

Since 1998, IFIP has had an experimental farm located in Romillé, Brittany, France, which allows them to run all types of trials at all stages of production.

This farmer's solution mitigates the effect of wind blowing through the windows, whether we have mechanical or natural ventilation.

What can we do to face the challenges in the industry? Innovate, research, and bring science closer to the field.
