The idea for an online simulator first emerged at a Uniferon
partner meeting at the 2010 IPVS conference in Canada and was
subsequently developed in association with our Belgian Uniferon
partner, Intervet.
Your piglets need iron. But how much?
It is common knowledge that your piglets need iron. But how much
will give the best production outcome? The Iron/Weight Gain
Optimizer (I/WGO) is the only online simulator making it possible
to estimate the potential mean iron need within a litter.
The free and useful tool will show you hands-on why Uniferon is
all about clever iron for clever breeders. In a few simple steps,
the I/WGO illustrates how to optimally balance the use of iron
against targeted production outcome. It is years of science and
best practice experiences made easy - with a click of your
mouse.
To promote the I/WGO we have initiated an international
advertising campaign, which can be seen in prominent industry
magazines and web sites. The goal is obviously to attract attention
to the optimizer, but also to raise awareness on how the right iron
partner with the right knowledge can make a significant and
valuable difference - in your daily work.
