LETTER FROM THE EDITOR
from 54 ROTECNA WORLD
Despite the increase in the prices of raw materials for feed production and the energy cost, the Spanish pork sector managed to close in 2022 as the main European producer, thanks to its efficiency and productivity. We are indeed facing a complex year full of challenges for our professionals, but it is also true that our sector has always stood out for its resilience, its great capacity for adaptation and its ability to find solutions. To continue as we are, it is fundamental to work together and maintain focus on such important aspects as animal welfare, sustainability, energy self-sufficiency, health, digitization, and the circular economy. These are some of the challenges that the pig sector must continue to face this year, without forgetting the threat of ASF and the PRRS. It is also worth noting the need to carry out clear and transparent communication, which allows explaining to the public opinion the weight of the pig sector in the economy, as well as its exemplary role when it comes to adapting to circumstances, improving, and improving day by day.
Faced with this issue, Rotecna continues to be on the farmers´ side and always offer the most efficient solutions. With this in mind, in March we will be at FIGAN, the main event of the national agricultural sector, which will be held in Zaragoza. From March 28th to the 31st, we will present at our stand (Hall 8, stand D-E / 9-12), with the latest developments in pig equipment, giving special attention to equipment for precision livestock and sustainability.

In addition, truthful to the commitment of bringing our solutions to pig farmers in every corner of the planet, from March 8-10th, we will travel to Thailand, where we will participate in a new edition of the VIV Asia fair, initially scheduled for 2020 and postponed due to the pandemic. Visitors can find us in Hall 2, stand 2690.
