As endemic diseases in cattle and pigs become a major focal point for the UK government, industry suppliers get set to efficiently support an even higher standard of farming as laid out in DEFRA’s latest policy update. That’s why we want to do our part by scaling up our efforts for healthy pig farming and increased welfare.

With the UK’s Chief Veterinary Officer recently warning that her biggest fear is an outbreak of African swine fever[1], all of us at All Agri identified a clear need to ramp up supplies and availability for pig farm essentials. A combination of a potential outbreak, supply chain pressures caused by Brexit, and attention being diverted to the latest Agricultural Transition Plan made the case in point.

Since launching in September, we’ve aimed to give farmers a break from the stress of staying on top of their farming needs. We listened to your feedback and steadily introduced the products you want and need to look after your animals. While this has meant we first focused on the poultry sector in response to the current threat of Avian Influenza, the potential of a similar threat from African swine fever has made us again look at our offering.

The new pig range includes industry-leading ventilation products including fans and circulation units from our sister company Hydor, air inlets from TPI and ventilation controllers from POLA. These key products focus on bringing fresh air into the sheds to prevent the spread of disease and protect animals from heat stress. Pigs are particularly sensitive to temperature conditions at different stages of their growth cycle, so the right environment ensures pigs display stable behaviour.

Combining over 100 years of industry experience, we’ve made All Agri to offer knowledgeable, trustworthy advice, alongside extensive product ranges on one unique platform from our range of farming experts. We bring together top class products from across Elta Group’s agricultural division comprised of industry-leading brands – Hydor, Bowden & Knights, Animal Aids and FarmTech Services.
