TEAM is a system of electronic feeding and management of sows penned in groups. An electronic feed station recognizes the individual EAR Button™ responder on each sow and dispenses feed in an enclosed feed station, preventing competition for food. The TEAM ESF program records feed intake and dispenses feed according to a user-set gestation feed curve. The TEAM system tracks farrowing and breeding dates, litter size, and litter weights, and provides producers with management control which promotes animal care and higher profits.
