Pig rearing and breeding: conference in Mikołów

Today, 4 March 2020, at the invitation of the Silesian Agricultural Advisory Centre in Częstochowa, we attended a conference on current issues in pig rearing and breeding. The meeting took place at the centre in Mikołów near Katowice. Speakers included representatives of companies in the feed, seed, chemicals and finance sectors. Representatives of ELETOR represented the technology sector.

The topics discussed mainly concerned problems with maintaining cleanliness standards in livestock buildings, particularly in the face of widespread viral diseases, as well as the economics of pig farming and cereal cultivation under climate change.

Tomorrow we are heading to another conference, as part of “Pig Day 2020”, organised by the Silesian branch of the Agricultural Advisory Centre. The meeting with breeders will take place this time in Częstochowa.
