We make safe and sustainable robots for agriculture." Jerome Mack It wasn’t that long ago that it took a dedicated team of employees to heatcheck sows; while one person lead the boar by hand down the rows of stalls, the other would heatcheck. This repeat interactions that could lead to dangerous situations. But it was just the way things were done. Then, twenty years ago in a small shop on a South Dakota farm, all of that changed. The Boar Bot was born. Conceived by South Dakota farmer Jerome Mack, the Boar Bot was an entirely new way of looking at on-farm tasks. The boar, once led by a dedicated handler, could be tethered to the mechanical Boar Bot and led up and down the aisles via remote control by one person, cutting the number of workers required to heatcheck down to one person. From its first day at the World Pork Expo, the Boar Bot was a hit, becoming the gold standard used by pork producers to maximize boar exposure to sows, increase farrowing rates and delivering better and more reliable heatchecking outcomes. Today, Jerome and the team of engineers and experienced producers at Swine Robotics continue to innovate, honoring the tradition of safety, reliability, and efficiency across a new line of mechanized bots aimed at making pork production safer and more efficient for producers worldwide.
