Swine Lameness
Prevention
When a sow is lame, it leads to lower lactation feed intake, decreased reproductive performance and ultimately an early exit from the herd. Our experts developed the Zinpro® Feet First® Program to help you identify and prevent lameness in your swine herd. Allowing you to focus on the wellness of your animals and improve the efficiency of pork production.

Locomotion scoring is a visual technique used to assess the severity of lameness in sows. You’ll learn how to observe sows standing and walking, then rank them based on visual cues. The system is intuitive, easy to learn, implement and allows for the early detection of foot disorders and lesions.
Swine Claw Lesion Identification
Our experts have developed an easy-to-use lesion scoring system to help you accurately identify and record claw lesions in your sow herd. This system allows you visually rank the seven most common claw lesions, based on the type of lesion and its level of severity.
