Description
As former pig farmers, we understand better than anyone what is essential for an optimal pig feeding system. Keeping feed costs under control is crucial, as feed is the biggest expense for a pig farmer. That is why we have developed the VERBA Mewaco pig feeder. The Mewaco feeder for pigs and piglets is used worldwide and is valued by pig farmers for its excellent performance and durability.
Design of the Mewaco pig feeder
The Mewaco VERBA pig feeder is specially designed for fattening pigs and piglets, and excels at dispensing fine pig feed. This includes meal and pellets, possibly mixed with CCM, without any bridging occurring in the feed. This feature makes the Mewaco feeder particularly suitable for automatic mixers, which often struggle to dispense fine pig feed accurately. Thanks to its unique design, the pig feeder allows the feed to flow freely, ensuring an optimal feed conversion ratio (FCR).
Separate drinking troughs for pigs
What really sets the Mewaco pig feeder apart is its separate drinking trough with Stainless steel fitting Verba. This helps to prevent water pollution and ensures that pig feed remains free from moisture. This minimises bridging and prevents blockages. Not only does this contribute to a more efficient pig feeding system, but it also reduces the risk of health problems in the pigs. This, in turn, leads to lower veterinary costs and increased productivity.
Sustainable materials
The Mewaco VERBA pig feeder is made from stainless steel and high-quality PE, making it extremely durable. It is therefore able to withstand the harsh conditions of a pigsty. This feeder is fitted with an internal stainless steel agitator rod that prevents feed from becoming jammed. The Mewaco feeder is therefore also suitable for feeding moister feeds, such as CCM, without disrupting the feed flow.
Furthermore, the Mewaco pig feeder is easy to adjust thanks to its indestructible worm screw, allowing it to be quickly and precisely adapted to the pigs’ needs. Optional accessories, such as stainless steel mounting brackets and covers, offer additional convenience and flexibility during the installation and maintenance of the pig feeder.
In summary, the Mewaco VERBA feeder offers pig farmers a reliable and efficient solution for feeding their animals, designed to deliver optimal performance, durability and ease of use. Thanks to its proven quality and versatility, the Mewaco pig feeder is a valuable investment for any modern pig farm.
Many satisfied customers
We have received a letter from ABZ Animal Feed: a magnificent film the Krüs family’s magnificent fattening piggery, which houses 3,500 fattening pigs. The Krüs family tested various brands of pig feeders, and the Mewaco feeder emerged as the winner. The Mewaco feeder perfectly dispenses the fine, floury compound feed that they prepare themselves using their own CCM. We are seeing that more and more pig farmers in the Netherlands are switching to finer dry feed, and the Mewaco feeder was specially designed for this purpose 20 years ago. Abroad, where many farms practise self-mixing, the Mewaco feeder has been in widespread use for a long time. In the Netherlands, this trend is now beginning to develop gradually, particularly as pig feed prices continue to rise.
