Managing pig manure is a time-consuming and costly challenge for pig farms. The obvious solution seems to be improving feed efficiency to reduce manure output — for example, using pellet feed instead of powder, or adding specific feed enzymes.
Research shows that a 7% improvement in feed efficiency can reduce manure volume by about 5%. However, the cost of improving amino acid digestibility in feed often outweighs the savings from reduced manure handling — a frustrating dead end.
The real game-changer? Reducing water waste from drinkers.
Data shows that with inefficient drinking systems, pigs can waste 35–38% of their water every day. This not only increases water costs, but also inflates manure handling expenses.
Long-term studies reveal that using a wet-dry feeder can cut water usage by around 30% and significantly lower slurry volume. The key component? The nipple drinker.
In the video below, you’ll see the Muge wet-dry feeder nipple in action. At the same water pressure, Muge’s nipple delivers a gentler flow that reduces pig stress and significantly cuts water waste.
💡 Less wasted water → lower costs → cleaner, more efficient farms.
