23 Steps to Improve Swine Barn Environment
Prairie Swine Centre has published a report detailing 23
improvements which can be made in the barn environment.
The report is broken down in to 3 sections covering
manure management, ventilation and other miscellaneous items. The
report
includes suggestions and
possible cause and effects of changes in the barn environment.
For
example within the manure management section it states; “Never allow manure to
build up closer than 12" to the bottom of the slats. Gas begins to enter the
confinement area and effect performance if manure builds up beyond this
levelâ€.
