ChronoMate™ (altrenogest) from Ceva facilitates synchronization of estrus in sexually mature gilts that have had at least one
estrous cycle. This allows sow farm managers to more accurately control the critical breeding and farrowing schedule for gilts,
which maximizes the flow of uniform pigs throughout the system. Tighter breeding and farrowing schedules for gilts - that means
fewer missed heat cycles compared to traditional visual monitoring and detection. Increased female productivity - synchronized
breeding helps reduce scheduled farrowing variability of mated gilts and maximizes the number of lifetime litters for each breeding
animal, it also provides more consistent farrowings per week and more weaned pigs per week flowing into the system. Reduced labor -
reduces manpower needed for heat checking and weekend breeding and farrowing.
