UK - Pig producers coping with low prices are urged to make sure they stick to a strict culling policy and remove nonproductive sows.Ciarán Carroll, head of Teagasc’s pig development department, was speaking to UK pig producers during AHDB Pork’s webinar on ‘getting through tough times’.He calculated that 10 extra empty days per litter costs 27,000 a year for a 500sow herd, with one empty day costing 2.30.“Producers need to continually monitor sow performance and make sure they cull underperformers immediately,” Ciarán said. “Don’t try to restore condition."
