Low Stress Pig Handling makes moving pigs easier and less stressful for both handlers and pigs.

	We have been teaching Low Stress Pig Handling since 2000 through conferences, presentations, workshops, on site coaching, on-line training, and training videos.

 

Our Low Stress Pig Handling training has helped handlers:

• reduce the time required to do routine pig moving tasks
• reduce or eliminate the use of energized electric prods
• reduce workplace injuries
• improve workplace morale and reduced staff turnover
• reduce trim and death losses
• pass third party packing plant welfare audits

At the request of our transport clients, DNL Farms developed a Low Stress Pig Handling Course for Truckers and made it available online. Trucking company trainers can register as facilitators to direct and monitor the progress of their trainees.

A good high speed connection is required for this course as video is used throughout. We demonstrate: factors that affect pig movement in the trailer, animal welfare audit requirements that apply to truckers, and Low Stress Pig Handling methods being used to load and unload all sections of a pot belly trailer.  Access this course at www.dnlfarmstraining.com

"As a TQA® advisor, I really value the concepts that Nancy explains to handlers. When the movement is easier for the pigs, it is much more enjoyable for the people as well."
