Genugten Agri has successfully expanded an existing sow farm in Pádpuszta, Hungary. The project includes a new farrowing stable with 600 farrowing crates (approx. 4,000 m²) and a gestation sow housing unit with around 3,000 sow places (approx. 8,800 m²). Both facilities have been fully designed and built according to Genugten Agri’s modern barn concept, with strong focus on ventilation, natural light, and future-proof design.
The barns feature ceiling heights over 3.5 meters to promote a healthy barn climate. Ventilation ceilings are made using wood-wool cement boards for consistent air distribution. Skylights along both long sides provide ample natural daylight, contributing to animal welfare and better working conditions.
Additionally, space in the middle of each barn has been reserved for future installation of an air scrubber. This ensures compliance with upcoming environmental regulations and future emissions reduction goals.
Large air inlets with pad-cooling have been integrated into the gable ends. This system introduces cooled air above the ventilation ceiling in summer months, providing additional comfort during hot periods.With this expansion, the Pádpuszta farm is fully prepared for an efficient and sustainable future in modern sow farming. A project that seamlessly combines functionality, animal health, and innovative technology.
