HyCare is a proven method in pig farming, with which we achieve great results. The most important theme of the HyCare method is hygiene.Animals living in a healthy environment suffer less from diseases and stress and have an improved resistance. In addition, the HyCare method leads to a significant decrease in (preventive) antibiotic use.
HyCare Method
By now, HyCare is a proven method that puts health and animal welfare first without losing sight of the yields. By ensuring that the pigs stay in a germ-free environment continuously, a high level of animal health and technical results can be achieved continuously.
Piglets rearing
The well-thought-out HyCare method for weaned piglets ensures unrivaled health in this vulnerable animal category. This results in healthier, more vital piglets and that with much less antibiotic use. The animals develop better and more uniformly, so that strong flocks are delivered. The HyCare method for piglet rearing provides a strong basis for the animal.
Fattening pigs
The HyCare method for fattening pigs ensures that the pigs can stay for months in a healthy environment on the fattening pig farm. This not only produces a lower infection pressure, but also a higher yield. Antibiotic reduction, better technical results and lower feed costs all contribute to this. Due to the effective hygiene measures, the prevailing diseases - including Salmonella – can hardly spread throughout the farm. The cleaner stables and healthier animals ensure a stable working environment and a higher balance.
Research and Development
In our vision, an integrative preventive health management concept – such as HyCare – contributes to (further) reducing antimicrobial resistance and prevalence of zoonotic diseases, which are both concerns from a public health perspective. In addition, our motivation is that HyCare results in better life for the animals (welfare) and more profit for the farmers (economy). We are continuously working to optimize and substantiate HyCare in collaboration with universities, other companies and clients. A few examples are described below.
