Rotecna presents its innovative products at the World Pork Expo

Aware of the importance and value of the World Pork Expo within the American and global pork industry, Rotecna has once again decided to be present at this event, considered one of the most significant in the sector worldwide.

Together with our distributor in the United States, and with the aim of expanding our presence on American farms, from June 7th to June 10th, we have shown the most innovative solutions from our brand. These include electronic feeding systems for gestating and farrowing sows (Dositronic G and Dositronic M), the Tecnapur slurry management system, and Silotronic, a laser technology sensor that provides real-time information on feed levels in the facilities from anywhere.

This year, the expo has celebrated its 35th edition with an extensive program featuring educational seminars and networking opportunities among various actors in the swine industry attending the event. In addition, its exhibition area has had the presence of more than 600 brands from all over the world.

Despite the current situation where inflation and high production costs are daily challenges, the exhibition has recieved more than 10,000 producers and professionals associated with the pork sector to discover the latest innovations and technologies developed for pig farming.

Iowa, home to the WPE and the largest pork-producing state in the United States

The pork industry in Iowa remains a crucial pillar of the local economy. With over 22 million pigs raised annually and more than 5,400 swine farms, the state continues to be a national leader in pork production. However, current challenges have brought uncertainty. International trade tensions and disease outbreaks have impacted prices and demand. Additionally, concerns about environmental issues associated with large-scale pork production have intensified. Despite these challenges, producers are embracing advanced technologies and more sustainable practices to ensure efficiency and quality in Iowa's pork production.
