Feed Management
Feed Management
- The AP Feed Management System enables swine producers to better monitor, analyze and control all of their barn functions that can impact animal consumption and productivity.
Get better control of feed related expenses.
Predict when feed bins will be empty, get alerts regarding out-of-feed situations and track animal consumption patterns in near real time.
Utilize a single dashboard interface to monitor a single operation or remotely oversee multiple hog farms, regardless of geographic location.
Key Features Include:
- Notifications — Users are alerted to any issue that requires attention, such as running out of feed or a consumption pattern concern. Out-of-feed conditions can be expensive in terms of lost productivity, even for an hour, and can cost producers up to $1.85 per pig, per feed outage event*.
- Insights – Predictive insights let you know when feed tanks are estimated to be empty based on current consumption trends. Analyze historical data to determine equipment, animal and barn performance to gain data backed insights on your operation, be it a single barn or an entire operation.
- No-dispensing alert — Should pigs stop eating for any reason — whether equipment- or health-related — producers are alerted so the problem can be quickly identified and addressed.
- Customized reordering — Producers can set how much advance notice they want when feed bins are running low, making communication between the feed mill and your operation easier.
