Workshops: Grand designs for pigs

24-03-2010 | Home | News

Pig producers can get inspiration to design the ideal outdoor unit at two free BPEX workshops.

The Grand Designs workshops will help producers to design and budget the best field layout for their unit.

BPEX Knowledge Transfer Manager Helen Thoday said: “Getting field design right can make a big difference in the day-to-day management of the unit as well as herd performance. All outdoor producers are welcome to join the workshops which, in the past, have been very productive and enjoyable – with a few surprises along the way.”

The workshops will take place:

Tuesday 23rd March at Larkmead Vet Practice, Ilgles Lane, Cholsey, OX10 9PA from 3pm to 5:30pm

Tuesday 25th May at Red House Hotel Parkhouse, Cross©Cholderton, SP4 0EG from 3pm to 5:30pm
