FEEDING ROUGHAGE

Roughage for organic egg-laying hens and sows

Experiments show that the feeding of roughage reduces feather pecking and cannibalism among egg-laying hens significantly.

The hens will be more healthy and more productive. Feeding of roughage to sows provide better saturated and thus less stressed animals.

JH MiniStrø

The JH MiniStrø allows floor feeding with roughage such as corn silage in stables with egg-laying hens or sows.

The roughage is mixed in and dosed in the robot from the JH MiniStrø mixer.

The mixing container of the mixer has a powerful, vertical screw for mixing the material.

Benefits

The automatic distribution of corn silage with JHminiStrø allows simultaneous feeding of all animals.

The JH MiniStrø robot can pick up material at various times from up to four different filling stations.

Animal welfare

The JH MiniStrø system can be used to meet new requirements of initiatives concerning increased animal welfare.

The roughage is ideal as both saturation food and rooting material, when it is distributed in the free range areas of sows, but can also be combined with the distribution of straw.
