Big Dutchman movie: Automatic pregnancy checking for sows in group housing with SonoCheck

http://www.bigdutchman.de Further information on SonoCheck, a device for automatic pregnancy checking of sows in group housing

SonoCheck reduces the stress of ultrasound scanning to a minimum. The core part of the system was developed especially for the Big Dutchman electronic sow feeding system (ESF) CallMatic Pro and can simply be mounted on to the ESF station. Every sow who enters the station is automatically scanned with an ultrasound scanner while she is eating thus markedly reducing the stress both for the sow and for the service personnel.

SonoCheck forms part of the new all-in-one BigFarmNet technology for pig production control. For further information please read: http://www.bigdutchman.de/en/pig/products/bigfarmnet.html

In the run-up to EuroTier 2010, the world's leading exhibition for animal husbandry being, SonoCheck has been awarded the coveted DLG gold medal (German Agricultural Society, DLG): http://www.eurotier.de/news.html?wb328=aHR0cDovL3ByZXNzZS5kbGcub3JnOjgwODEvL3...
