These guidelines are inline with the EU directive on the protection of pigs and with the requirements needed from 1 January 2013.

These conditions will require more investment into providing the suitable housing for gilts in groups.

These guidelines will serve as a tool to address the adaptation of farms and should help to improve the competitiveness of Spanish products.
