Precision Microbes Swine Series - From Birth to Bacon

The success of the Precision Microbes brand on Irish dairy farms in recent years has been well documented. Now, demand for the benefits of pre-, pro- and post-biotic formulations in other species is growing rapidly, both in production and companion animal settings. Recently, the Interchem Swine and Precision Microbes teams carried out a performance trial on the McAuliffe family’s Parknageragh pig unit in Co. Kerry, using the Precision Microbes Swine range. The results were particularly impressive. This video series introduces the farm, documents the trial, presents a larger discussion about the Irish pig industry and looks further into the Precision Microbes Swine range. Episode 3 Tommy Heffernan and Shane McAuliffe discuss the renewed focus on animal welfare on the Kerry pig unit. Irish pork has the lowest carbon footprint in Europe and Shane describes how the country’s pig producers are now focusing on renewable energy to power their enterprises. Shane outlines the national pig herd’s performance in pigs per litter and litters per year, as well as walking us through a pig’s journey from birth through the production system. Tommy asks Shane on the key challenges throughout the production system and the duo discuss the broader topic of consumer perceptions of Irish pig production, touching on sustainability and animal welfare.
