SINCLAIR
MINIATURE SWINE PRODUCTION  |
|
Sinclair operates two miniature
swine production facilities located in Columbia,
Missouri and Windham, Maine. The AAALAC accredited
state-of-the-art Missouri facility is environmentally
friendly, with a computer controlled 100% fresh-air
ventilation system that recovers 80% of the energy
from the air exhaust. Based on 40 years of swine
production experience, the new facility is designed
around a revolutionary production system tailored
specifically for the special needs of the miniature
swine. An integrated socialization and enrichment
program provides human and conspecific contacts
and environmental enhancements. Husbandry emphasizes
daily human contact, routine treat and toy offerings,
visual contact with adjacent pens, elimination
of nose to nose contact in young animals, and
minimal regrouping to maintain established social
hierarchies. The inherent production stresses
associated with weaning, animal movement, and
regrouping are greatly minimized. The animal flow
is tightly controlled and friendly to both animals
and people, and ultimately gives you, our client,
a superior miniature swine. |
