Animal ultrasound machines can quickly and accurately detect whether sows are pregnant, and can accurately detect whether sows are pregnant 24 days after mating. Beast ultrasound utilizes the principle that ultrasound can propagate directionally within the body and generate reflections when encountering tissue interfaces with different acoustic impedances. By scanning the cross-section of the uterus and fetal body in the form of images, pregnancy results can be determined based on the images.

Detecting sow pregnancy

Feed accounts for a significant portion of the expenses in pig farms, so empty and ineffective feeding is an important factor affecting the development and economic benefits of most pig farms. So the use of B-ultrasound for pigs by farmers has become very widespread.

Animal B-ultrasound machine plays a role in diagnosing pregnancy in sows:

1. Save feed and avoid ineffective feeding

In the past, farmers usually judged a pregnant sow by mating it for one estrus period before returning. But this method can only be confirmed about one month before labor, and it cannot detect non estrus and non pregnant sows after mating early. This will result in an ineffective feeding time of 60-80 days for non pregnant sows. If using a Pig ultrasound machine for early pregnancy diagnosis, a sow can save feeding costs of 350-450 yuan. According to the statistical analysis of monitoring results, using Veterinary Ultrasound to monitor early pregnancy for every 100 sows can reduce ineffective feeding costs by more than 6500 yuan per year.

2. Ensure balanced production and improve economic efficiency

The key to the production efficiency of large-scale pig farms lies in balanced production, which depends on balanced breeding. However, in actual production, due to various factors, it is difficult to accurately control the number of sows participating in breeding and pregnant sows. In order to ensure balanced production, it is sometimes necessary to increase the number of breeding heads, resulting in overproduction and littering. This not only fails to achieve true balanced production, but also increases management difficulties, which can ultimately affect production efficiency. animal B-ultrasound monitoring can accurately grasp the number of pregnant sows early on, ensuring balanced production.
