Thanks to its advanced technology, the Selfifeeder GFI station significantly improves feed efficiency:
The Selfifeeder GFI is the intelligent feeding station that is transforming finishing management. Equipped with an electronic identification system (RFID or UHF tag) and an integrated scale, this equipment enables each animal within the same group to receive the exact ration matched to its individual nutritional needs.
The goal is clear: deliver the right amount of nutrients to the right animal at the right time.
The Selfifeeder GFI station is revolutionizing finishing management by delivering a fully integrated and connected solution. Developed through close collaboration between Asserva and pig producers, this intelligent feeding station addresses today’s major challenges in swine production: zootechnical performance, economic efficiency, animal welfare, and environmental responsibility.
The objective: improve feed conversion ratio (FCR) and average daily gain (ADG), while reducing processing losses and physical feed waste.
Our Solution: Selfifeeder GFI Awarded 3 Innov’Space Stars The Selfifeeder GFI was awarded 3 Innov’Space Stars, the highest distinction at the SPACE exhibition, recognizing its innovative nature and its major contribution to improving livestock management practices. This recognition confirms both the technological excellence and the tangible impact of the Selfifeeder GFI on the performance of finishing pig operations.
Capacity: 30 to 40 pigs per station, from 25 to 130 kg depending on feed type.
This individualized approach optimizes nutritional intake for each animal throughout its growth, preventing underfeeding and minimizing feed waste.
*"Before installing Asserva’s Selfifeeder GFI stations, it took us around six hours to sort 250 pigs. Today, we have optimized our working time, as sorting now takes almost no time at all. This efficiency is made possible by the automatic marking system, which identifies and marks animals as soon as they reach the target market weight. The accuracy of weight-based targeting is impressive: we now have 96% of pigs within the optimal weight range. The Selfifeeder GFI is the ideal solution for individualized feeding and connected finishing management."*
This intelligent management system significantly enhances feeding efficiency by providing each pig with exactly what it needs at every stage of growth.
The Selfifeeder GFI automatically records and analyzes:
Individual Zootechnical Performance:
Detailed Feeding Behavior:
Last 5 Days Monitoring:
A simplified interface displays average feed intake and weight over the last five days for each pen, enabling immediate responsiveness.
These data provide the farmer with precise insights into herd performance and allow rapid identification of animals that require special attention.
The Selfifeeder GFI system allows you to anticipate weight gains and generate accurate marketing forecasts.
Concrete Example:
Benefits:
The Selfifeeder GFI station is equipped with an automatic marking system integrated with weighing:
This feature allows producers to maximize the percentage of animals within the desired weight range while freeing up valuable working time.

A Selfifeeder GFI station can feed 30 to 40 finishing pigs per pen, ranging from 25 to 130 kg depending on the type of feed used. This optimal capacity ensures efficient batch management while providing regular access to feed for each animal.
Precision feeding optimizes the feed conversion ratio by avoiding waste and providing each animal with exactly what it needs. Accurate rationing improves feed utilization and significantly reduces feed costs.
The system, integrated with weighing, is programmed to automatically identify and mark pigs that have reached the target weight defined by the producer. This feature allows up to 96% of pigs to be within the target weight range and drastically reduces sorting time.
The Selfifeeder GFI integrates into most farm configurations. Our technicians conduct a custom study of your project to adapt the solution to your constraints and objectives. The system can also be connected to other Asserva controllers via a wired network.
Asserva provides comprehensive training for your team during installation. The intuitive interface allows for a quick learning curve. Technical support is also available daily, with the option for remote assistance via the Internet.
Yes, your data are stored on a secure, encrypted cloud and protected with personal access codes. You retain full control over your data: automatic retrieval or transfer cannot occur without your consent. Asserva is fully committed to ensuring confidentiality.
Yes, with the Asserva mobile application (smartphone and tablet), you can access all your zootechnical data in real time: weight, feed intake, ADG, FCR, feeding behavior, marketing predictions, and more. Alerts are also sent in case of anomalies.
The Selfifeeder GFI helps reduce the environmental impact of pig production by limiting feed waste and nitrogen excretion through precision feeding. Each animal receives exactly what it needs, minimizing both feed loss and effluent production.
The Selfifeeder GFI, awarded 3 Innov’Space Stars, is the solution to modernize your farm, improve efficiency and profitability, while enhancing animal welfare and reducing your environmental impact.
Today, finishing pig production benefits from fully connected automation: from managing silo feed supply, individualized and rationed feeding, automatic marking of pigs ready for marketing, to remote monitoring of the entire operation.
