Farrowing unit


Many farrowing units have farrowing crates within the pens. The crates ensure a safe and reliable production and during the past decades they have been an important element of the increased production level in the farrowing units.

The farrowing crate from Egebjerg has contributed to making Denmark world leader in producing the
highest number of weaners in average.

In Denmark the farrowing pen from Egebjerg is considered the most used during the last almost 15 years.

The farrowing pen ensures a rational flow of work as it provides a good general view. In that way inspection
and handling of the sow and the piglets is easy.

If loose sows are required in the farrowing unit Egebjerg is also able to deliver. The combi-farrowing pen
with the XL crate from Egebjerg combines the request for a high production level with the wish for loose
housing on a minimum of additional square metres.
