Legal requirements and followup in the pork chain require instant knowledge of all information regarding animal health status on a farm. The relevant data is often disseminated in different sorts of files throughout the office. A secured access to all this relevant information is made possible by Sanibase. Sanibase is a network information system which centralises information relating to actual on-farm health status. Any member of an authorised user community has access to this data.

 

Sanibase gathers in one place lab information, cooperatives information, technical information (weight gain, feed consumption), prescriptions of health vet communities and visit protocols. Slaughter data can also be integrated.Authorised users instantly share the same information. That means that veterinarians have an immediate and regular insight into on-farm health status. Advisory services of technicians can be improved and farmers have an instant view and history of their profile on a unique web secured information portal.

 

Sanibase ensures a totally secured and confidential updating of the data (only authorised members have access) which is made on a regular basis (time lack ranges from every day to twice a week). Files are recorded by automatic procedures.

In the future, and on demand, Sanibase can be extended.

 

This framework has been developed by SANDERS and the partner cooperatives (L’ARMORIQUE and PORC OUEST). Further more, one pilot chain of Q-PorkChains deals with the R&D of the information system Sanibase.
