Résumé : | Aim of study : To investigate the impact of adopting new feeding precision technology on pig production. Area of study : Four EU countries (Germany, France, Poland and Spain) during the period 20102015. Material and methods : The Färe-Primont index was used to estimate total factor productivity change and its components, technological change and efficiency change. Main results : German, French and Spanish farms experienced total factor productivity (TFP) progress, while Polish farms did not for both feeding strategies. Our empirical findings suggest a high impact on the productivity of ad libitum feeding technique compared to the restricted one for all countries. Research highlights : Precision feeding strategies provide another avenue to more sustainable livestock production and further evidence that implementing individual ad libitum feeding systems for pigs could enhance farms productivity. |
