Water quality is a critical but often underappreciated factor in swine management. To better understand its impact, Pipestone Research recently conducted a series of trials comparing the performance of pigs raised on rural water versus well water. These trials yielded significant insights into how water quality can influence pig growth, health, and overall nursery performance.

In partnership with Boehringer Ingelheim Animal Health USA Inc., Pipestone Research has provided a rapid response to bring science-based answers to managing the emergence of PRRSV 144 L1C.

The tech service team works to challenge current production protocols, evaluate new ideas and technology, and provide real data to make decisions. Utilizing actual sow farms, we can conduct large scale field research trials in actual production conditions. This helps to gain valuable information to implement in sow farms managed by Pipestone Management.
