Strategic evaluation of opportunities and R&D needs for water management in piggeries

Australian pork industry has long been committed to environmentally sustainable production. The pork industry has already adopted significant water savings initiatives such as well-designed drinkers, the use of treated effluent for shed flushing, or deep litter systems in suitable climates but there are other opportunities that have not yet been properly explored. This project identified priority areas for future research to improve piggery water management.
