THE AMBITIOUS PIG VETERINARIANS
Ø-Vet
Ø-Vet consists of 13 veterinarians distributed across the entire country.
Our CEO, Ken Steen Pedersen, is a professor of pig diseases at the University of Copenhagen and ensures a high, professional level.
Two veterinarians are always assigned to each farm so that you regularly get fresh eyes on it. Furthermore, we spar with each other on a weekly basis – so you do therefore not just get two veterinarians but an entire handful.
The visits are tailored according to your/your farm’s needs and we prioritise systematic advice at a high, professional level. We are happy to make both hernia and slaughter certificates so we can ensure that as many of your animals as possible make it to slaughter.
We have many years of experience with advisory services on both Danish and foreign farms. Among other things, via our work in Norway, Sweden and Finland we have gained big insight into handling of loose-housed, lactating sows plus handling of intact tails. Both of these areas are becoming more and more relevant in Denmark.
All visits are finalised with a report with specific advice that can be used in your strategic decisions or in the pig pen, and all our customers get access to MedReport – a benchmarking tool designed for financial comparison of your farm’s medicine consumption with other similar farms – both nationally and internationally.
We are ambitious and spend the exact amount of time needed to move your production in a better direction.
