The computer constantly monitors 24 different functions, including temperature and humidity, while automatically making adjustments to maintain preset values dictated by pig age and size. We now use a total artificial insemination program with semen being collected and extended on-sight from our boars. With approximately 100 sows and gilts in the breeding herd, we are moving toward a monthly farrowing and marketing schedule. The ewes in the sheep program performed quite well this year. We ve bred some ewes already to produce a small herd of fall-born lambs, and plan to breed the remainder of the ewes to produce late winter lambs.
Visitors are welcome to our facility, but limited tours are available for biosecurity reasons.
