In 2006 we installed a state of the art electronic feed measurement system by GrowSafe® that tracks the consumption of each individual animal to the mouthful. Radio ID tags inserted into the ears of the animals and individual feed bunks mounted on scales accurately calculate the amount of feed each animal consumes. This, coupled with individual animal weight gains give us feed efficiency numbers for each animal. The system also allows us to track the daily consumption of feed so we can watch for any irregularities which might indicate disease or other problem with a particular animal.
