Description
The TEAM (Total Electronic Animal Management) G-Station is the feeding station for the TEAM Electronic Sow Feeding (ESF) System. The station uses RFID (Radio Frequency Identifcation) technology to individually feed and manage gestating sows and gilts without individual confinement. Freedom to exercise, freedom to choose eating schedule without anxiety or aggression from other animals, and better control of animal condition means sows and gilts are docile, easy to approach, and less stressed when compared to animals kept in gestation stalls.
RFID tags on each animal identifies it to the G-Station which dispenses the precise amount of feed for each specific animal. Entrance and exit gates gives sows and gilts time to eat her meal without competition from other animals. An adjustable amount of water is delivered during the meal to encourage cleanup and shorten eating time. The G-Station is one of the most rugged ESF stations available. Its “rock solid” design withstands years of abuse from large animals.
