The pig building ventilation guide aims to help producers provide optimum indoor living conditions for pigs, thereby improving health, welfare and production efficiency, through a better understanding of the principles of ventilation and types of system available

Outdoor pig producers can produce a Soil Management Plan (SMP) for their land where they keep pigs. This demonstrates good practice and avoids problems associated with soil erosion which can result in pollution or other negative impacts putting agricultural subsidy payments in jeopardy

Owners and managers of outdoor herds face the challenge of good soil management to ensure efficient daily operations, health and welfare of pigs while still ensuring consequential environmental impacts from water and airborne soil erosion are minimised by good soil management

Practical advice to pig farmers on providing suitable environmental enrichment to pigs. It provides useful information from the knowledge of farmers, researchers and scientific literature on the different ways environmental enrichment can be provided for differing types of housing and systems

Good water is key for health and good production. This report by RAFT solutions summarises technical and practical information on principles and practice based on international standards and published science, coupled with practical experience and knowledge from UK pig production

Known as the Interpig report, this document is created annually and examines the relative costs of pig meat production right up to farmgate level in selected countries. All these figures in this edition relate to 2016.

Project 1: Translating existing knowledge of management effects on soil biology and soil health for practitioners

Project 3: Molecular approaches for routine soil-borne disease and soil health assessment - establishing the scope

The Yearbook provides updates on the work undertaken by AHDB during the previous year. Teams from knowledge exchange, research & innovations, health & welfare, consumer marketing, exports, market intelligence, consumber insight and the pork strategy director all share details of progess on projects

The UK pig meat review shares the latest data on clean pig and sow slaughterings. It provides the latest import and export figures for the quarter and makes projections about the overall market supply situation to create a forecast

Water is key for health, welfare and productivity. Sampling water may be an assurance scheme requirement. You may also wish to test minerals, flow rate and temperature to assess quality and quantity of a new supply or to investigate issues such as poor water intake or blocked pipes and filters

Pigs kept outdoors are particularly vulnerable to radiant heat gain and it is important that they have access to shade in sunny weather. There are a number of ways in which producers can minimise heat stress

Heat stress must be avoided in order to prevent unnecessary suffering and reduced productivity in indoor herds

The pocketbook contains details about the size and structure of the industry, plus data on Pig numbers, abattoirs, slaughterings, livestock and meat prices, imports and exports, consumption, feed prices and classification

Water is key for health, welfare and productivity. Sampling water may be an assurance scheme requirement. You may also wish to test minerals, flow rate and temperature to assess quality and quantity of a new supply or to investigate issues such as poor water intake or blocked pipes and filters

With potentially increasing feed costs, it may become more profitable to finish pigs at a lower slaughter weight, with a reduced feed input
