SwineTech, MetaFarms and Jyga Technologies launch Modern Tech Stack

Jan 20, 2025

The swine industry is entering a new era of technological innovation with the introduction of the “Modern Tech Stack,” a collaborative and integrated approach to farm management that maximizes efficiency, productivity and animal welfare. At the forefront of this movement are SwineTech’s PigFlow, MetaFarms’ data management and Jyga Technologies’s VISION feed management software. Together, these systems represent a pivotal step forward in the evolution of farm technology, delivering value that goes beyond a single integration to revolutionize swine production.

“Our customers were asking for a more integrated solution to manage their sow farm data,” said Brian Parker, MetaFarms chief operating officer and ag platform president. “Dual data entry and systems that couldn’t communicate created bottlenecks and frustration. By partnering with SwineTech, we can now offer a seamless experience that leverages the strengths of multiple platforms.”

Seamless integration
The “Modern Tech Stack” unites the three essential layers of swine production technology:

Historical data systems: MetaFarms’ platform provides robust insights of active sows and groups and contextualizes performance trends to allow producers to strategically plan and evaluate outcomes.
Point-of-care solutions: SwineTech’s PigFlow translates data into immediate, actionable tasks, ensuring compliance and engagement at the farm level.
Precision technologies: Jyga Technologies GESTAL feeding systems use advanced sensors and algorithms to deliver precise feeding regimens, optimizing sow health and productivity.
