Mate pigs naturally

KHU-AGR-0719

This unit of competency describes the skills and knowledge required to manage the mating of pigs, including preparing for and facilitating mating. The unit applies to individuals who mate pigs under broad direction, and take responsibility for their own work. All work must be carried out to comply with workplace procedures, health and safety in the workplace requirements, animal welfare legislative, regulatory and codes of practice requirements, and sustainability and biosecurity practices. In addition to legal responsibilities, all units of competency dealing with animals in the AHC Training Package have the requirements for animals to be handled humanely to minimise stress and discomfort. No licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.
