Schauer won the top award in Korea
Spotmix Multiphase feeder and Operation Scan impressed the jury

"The feed supply system can control the supply time and time limit of each of the 96 feed feeders on the farm, and because it is individual grade, individual control is possible not only to supply the specific mixing cost of a particular feed, but also to the combination of drugs. This calculated that rose farm's feed efficiency of 0.1 was worth 1,400 won per two (based on the feed cost of 500 won) and showed me the specific profit target of improving feed efficiency."

Terpstra Farm Canada: Better sow management with Compident ESF from Schauer supported by AP

Tara and Dennis Terpstra operate a 370 sow farrow to finish sow farm in SW Ontario. The system is part of a raised without antibiotics program. New technology has been implemented on the Terpstra farm through a number of innovative products. 



They use the Schauer/AP Compident ESF system, manufactured by Schauer. Mr. and Mrs. Terpstra are satisfied with the operation, installation and support that AP has given them. They are very good producers and very respected in Southwest Ontario.
 
The sow flow in the gestation barn is a pre-implant system where the sows are housed in pens soon after breeding. They also offer sow enrichment by using Chain Disk chains for sows to occupy themselves with.
 
The ventilation system in the gestation and farrowing is Air Works and operates on an air exchange chamber principle. They use Verijken floors in farrowing. This along with excellent management allows the Terpstras to keep pre-weaning mortality below 5% which is far below industry averages. Tara and Dennis also operate a row crop operation along with raising their family.

Compident 8 Electronic feeding with animal scale
Now monitoring of sow's health with animal scales available


For the Compident ESF, which has been successfully sold worldwide for more than 35 years a new animal scale is again available for permanent monitoring of individual animal weight and for health monitoring.
Schauer was the first provider who has been offering an optional animal scale for it‘s Compident ESF system for more than 20 years. After the market launch of the new Compident 8 series two years ago, the gap now has now been closed with the development of an new animal scale. This animal scales can either be individually integrated in each feeding station or in the system with central selection in the exit corridor. The functionality of the very robust and functional reliable design of the scales is enhanced by the data management of the animal weights in the Topo Compident feeding program with analyzes and alarm functions for this purpose. These can be automatically forwarded to those responsible as text messages and also displayed graphically in the program. The permanent monitoring of the animal weights enables variations and negative trends in the case of diseases to be recognized at an early stage and offers the FarmManager important additional management information.

BeFree 3.0 FT 30 - advanced 

BeFree 3.0 FT 30 farrowing pen - future-oriented solution for more freedom and success in farrowing with the best pre-conditions for long tails.

The BeFree free farrowing pen has now established itself as one of the leading free farrowing systems in Europe and has been further developed in important details. An innovative and modular concept for the piglet nest allows it to be flexibly adapted to different size ratios, even up to the rearing of the piglets in the pen (FT 30 - farrow to 30 kg). A large piglet nest with a closeable flap and full cover with integrated flap offers optimal starting conditions for the piglets. The sow can be offered feed and straw in the combined trough. Protective bracket for temporarily sow fixation.

Due to the unique, patented geometry of the farrowing pen, it is possible to ensure a movement area of 5.0 m2 for the sows with entire 6.5 m2 of pen area. A specially designed swivel bracket wall enables the full functionality of a standard farrowing crate to protect the newborn piglets while it is closed for the first few days. If this crate wall is swiveled 90 ° away from the piglet nest, the sow has the greatest possible freedom of movement, as no “dead”, inaccessible corners remain.
But still most important to the farmers is the patented geometry, where labor can handle all necessary tasks safe and extensive from corridor.

​MamaDos - sow feeding system with new dispenser for even more floury feed

MamaDos is a central dry feeding system that is controlled by the Topo feeding computer.



The system makes it possible either to adjust the amount of feed per sow and day as well as to feed at several dosing intervals for each animal according to the feeding curve, or it is sensor-controlled by the sow's feed intake. This can improve feed intake.
With the new 8 litre volume dispenser, which was specially developed for MamaDos, it is possible to store a larger volume of feed. Bridging is successfully prevented by the particularly steep and one-sided funnel. The funnel can also be opened quickly and without tools by turning it slightly for cleaning. Outside water drips effectively prevent water from entering the reservoir.
The main focus on product developement oft he new MamaDos hopper was  on quick and easy assembly, which allowes investment costs to be reduced to a minimum.
Capture: MamaDos with new hopper for flexible use und quick installation will be grateful welcomed by professional sow farmers.

Quanto for safe and functional feeding management
Qanto - the next generation feeding system - from Schauer Agrotronic for safe and functional feeding management



Schauer has been developing and producing feeding computers in-house for more than 45 years and thus offers its customers a unique product service life and decades of support. With technological progress, the demands of professional farmers worldwide are increasing, and this is precisely why the Qanto - the next generation feeding system - was developed.
The compact housing offers a high level of protection against dust and moisture and is therefore perfect for the stable office. Modern architecture and the use of SSD hard drives make the new Qanto fast and secure. The "WideScreen Monitor" in HD resolution (16: 9) enlarges the screen surface by 50%. Related information can thus clearly and simultaneously displayed on the monitor. The new VFPig6 software directs the customer's gaze to precisely those animals that need their attention with pre-programmed queries. These queries can be quickly and easily adapted to individual needs.

The new Qanto enables almost any combination of the proven Schauer feeding programs (Spotmix, Liquimix, Drymix, Babyfeed, Compident or MamaDos) on one single device to operate. The Qanto is everywhere accessible via the PigMangerSmart mobile application in the stable's WiFi. With optional cloud storage, the data can be stored worldwide and can be accessed across locations.

Qanto - a quantum leap in terms of modern feeding management from SCHAUER!

PPK Karlovac in Croatia - a large and modern cattle barn with Strohmatic littering system
The farm  is modernizing and expanding its cattle production in Stari Sumbar, relying on the stable technology from Schauer Agrotronic from Austria



The Croatian meat producer and food retailer PPK Karlovac modernized the existing cattle fattening barn with 1200 heads and expanded it to 2000 fattening places. The high quality of the Schauer housing equipment as well as the technological leadership with the Strohmatic littering system were the reason for the investor to trust to Schauer for the modernization of the cattle barn.
Our latest customer in Croatia, the company PPK Karlovac, was founded in 1963 and belongs to the Pivac Group, which, with a total number of 2,000 employees and almost 300 retail stores, is one of the market leaders in the meat processing sector in Croatia. The best-known products that are manufactured by the subsidiaries of the Pivac Group are Dalmatian prosciutto, Dalmatian bacon, dried loin of pork and dried pork loin, but also dry sausages and salamis. The parent company Braca Pivac has existed since 1952.

The “Stari Šumbar” cattle barn, which was renovated in 2020 and equipped by the SCHAUER Agrotronic, is part of a large-scale renovation program that has already cost 18 million kuna (approx. 2.4 million euros) to date.  The primarily benefit is to improve the conditions for keeping the animals as well as to reduce the negative impact on the environment. At the same time, the customer, which has already been existing for 40 years, expanded the cattle barn by 800 fattening places from 1,200 to 2,000.
In addition to the usual high-quality stable equipment and a computer-controlled manure removal system with touchscreen operation, animal health and work efficiency in particular were taken into account through the use of the SCHAUER Strohmatic littering system. This system shreds and dedusts the straw from large bales and transports it quietly and automatically to the fattening pens. This makes the straw much more absorbent, which in turn leads to a 50% reduction in the straw requirement. At the same time, the dust-free straw is an essential part of an unpolluted and healthier stable air, from which not only the animals, but also the workers benefit.

PPK CEO Igor Miljak is audibly proud when he reports in an interview that if a stable were to be built in Germany or the Netherlands today, it would look just like his renovated stable.
Therefore, the meat parts of the animals fattened in this stable are not only to be marketed in Croatia, but also in the regions of Milan, Florence and Tuscany, where the products of the Pivac Group are already enjoying increasing popularity.
