Abstract (en)

Method for determining a physiological state of a sow, comprising the steps of non-invasively surveying a current state of activity of said sow during at least one discrete time slice of a current day; comparing the state of activity with stored data relating to at least one corresponding time slice of at least one day preceding the current day; and determining on the base of said comparison the physiological state of said sow. The surveyed state of activity includes the time period during which the sow is standing and the time period during which the sow is laying down.
