Abstract

Method and system for determining a condition of at least one pig in a pen provided with a feed unit. The pen is provided with a sensor system. For carrying out the method, a step a., step b. or a combination of steps a. and b. is possible. In step a., with the aid of the sensor system a reaction of the at least one pig is measured. This is done when with the feed unit feed is made available in the pen to the at least one pig to determine on the basis of the measured reaction a condition of the at least one pig. In step b., with the aid of the sensor system it is measured that the at least one pig 'demands' feed to determine a condition of the at least one pig.
