Pt 3 ADAS Pig Keeping course - West Sussex - 4 April 2012


ADAS    Smallholder Training Workshops

Part 3– Managing the sow, litter and piglets

We invite you to the third in a series of four workshops aimed at small scale pig keepers which are free to all.

Subjects covered:

-     Sow management at farrowing
-     Litter management
-     From Piglet to “Store pig”

4th April 2012
10am – 4pm
Tedfold Cottage Farm,
Rowner Road,
Billingshurst,
West Sussex,
RH14 9HU

Lunch and refreshments are provided throughout the day and there will be plenty of time for questions and discussion. 

Our aim is to encourage questions, personal observations and comments to the group – the more you put in the more you get out! In the afternoon will be a farm walk to meet the pig/s on site where a discussion on either a previous topic eg: handling/ accommodation can continue or the host farm may speak regarding the animals and share tips. (Please bring some clean/disinfected outdoor clothing
