I dont know how they clean their barns but I have seen operations where they wash the floors with water and let it run into the pits below, then use bacteria addons like micro-bac
Hello Chad , I would like to talk with you. It's possible to change an e-mail? My is allanvcp2@yahoo.com.br Send a mensage I will responde as quickly as I can. Thanks and best regards.
Sadly just another cruel intensive unit, where pigs are tail docked to avoid tail bitting because the rearing environment is not right.. We too have these mindless cruel operations in the UK. The problem is the constant endorsements to the two young people that somehow gives the green light to treat animals in this way. I am a pork producer in the uk. I farm organically because I have respect for the animals. See my videos and then question your cruelty. pigrearing.co.uk And sadly remember that 98% of your egg laying birds spend their entire life unable to move arounfd on wire floors. You try it. Walk over a sheet of reinforcing mesh bare foot and when you do you will get the point. I am happy to answer any questions.
One further point. My drug book on my organic farm is empty. I do not need in feed anti biotics because my pigs are raised naturally. Is your drug book empty?? You are now raising your own family. Anti biotic resistance in pork that is passed on will put your children in jeopardy when they need treatment. I would be happy to discuss this topic with anyone at, clemjackson100@gmail.com author of Pigs pork and pleasure.
hi Chad, thanks for showing your new barn and good luck. I am retired extension engineer in Nova Scotia,Canada. Great way to tour a swine bar barn without the hassle of plastic boots,showers,etc. Best regards, Gary Bishop.

The TPP is a free trade deal, has 5600 pages, 30 chapters, and only 6 of which actually deal with trade. After NAFTA, do you really believe this is going to help the US?
