39: Pork: A practical approach to delivering clean water to your pigs

In the first AHDB Pork podcast we focus on water.  We hear from Zanita Markham (AHDB) and Mark Jagger (Tulip) as we look at the importance and impact of cleaning water systems on pig performance, along with how water can be used to deliver medication.  We also find out about some of the work we are doing on one of our strategic farms from Andrew Palmer, AHDB knowledge exchange manager. We finish up with a quick update on the outlook for pig prices and feed costs from Bethan Wilkins, one of our analysts.   Useful links  Water sampling for microbiology, minerals and flow rate video A guide to designing a water supply system for livestock Acceptable drinking water parameters for pigs factsheet Standard operating procedure (SOP) for collecting water samples Strategic farms Pork Talk market update videos AHDB Brexit hub   Get in touch Email: [email protected] Sign up to receive the latest information from AHDB
