Bopil Single Sow Feeder - ESF in a feeding stall
Individual feeding and simple training
The Single Sow Feeder is an alternative to the traditional ESF, combining individual ESF feeding with the feeding box system. A Single Sow Feeder station can accommodate fewer sows than a traditional ESF transponder station, offering excellent opportunities to create fixed weekly groups by dividing the sows into smaller or larger groups depending on the herd size.
Individual phase feeding of pregnant sows provides the best conditions for managing their body condition. Controlling feed intake via the ESF or Single Sow Feeder reduces your costs and thus increases your profitability compared to other feeding systems in the gestation barn.
The Single Sow Feeder can dispense dry or wet feed and accommodate various small-volume supplements. Up to four stations can be combined, allowing the housing system to be adapted to sows and gilts of all group sizes.
The sows eat in peace and quiet while in the correct position. The enclosed sides ensure that the sow can eat without the risk of being disturbed by the herd.
The control and feeding system is the same as that used with the ESF. The user-friendly IT platform provides a complete overview of the ponds’ feeding statistics from the office or via the app.
Individual feeding and reduced social aggression contribute to lower piglet mortality and improved animal welfare in the gestation barn.
It is possible to connect an outdoor antenna so that stray animals are automatically excluded and recorded directly in the feed computer.
Very low maintenance and few moving parts ensure a reliable solution that does not require frequent service visits.
The ability to establish fixed weekly groups by dividing the sows into smaller or larger groups, depending on the herd size and barn layout.
Optimal care, monitoring, and control from the office or via the app give you full control over feeding—even outside normal working hours.
