Milk production and nutritional requirements of modern sows (I)

Many sow farms have been increasing total born and weaning large litters with heavier pigs. With litter size continuing to improve and lactation length increasing to around 21 days, the demand for milk production must continue to increase to meet the increasing demand of heavier pigs.

Dietary sow supplementation influences growth rate of pigs post weaning

Piglets suckling SWE-supplemented sows had an enhanced humoral immunity, greater percentage positive of E. coli phagocytising leukocytes and suppressed colonic E. coli population

Infection in pigs due to Rotavirus

Rotaviruses are important enteric pathogens that affect newborns of several animal species. In swine, they can cause gastroenteritis in piglets.

Effect of dietary supplementation of oregano essential oils to sows on colostrums and milk composition, growth pattern and immune status of suckling pigs

Supplementing sow diets with 250 mg/kg of oregano essential oils during gestation and lactation did not affect the growth potential of and immune responses in suckling piglets.

NutritionAbstract

Effect of dietary CLA administration on fatty acid composition and lipogenic and lipolytic enzyme activities in suckling and weaned piglets

The concentration of fatty acids in subcutaneous fat and liver tissues of piglets 35 d after weaning is largely dependent on the CLA content of piglet diet rather than CLA enrichment of sow diet.

Bacterial flora on the mammary gland skin of sows and in their colostrum

This is, to the authors’ knowledge, the first published study to determine the bacterial flora in skin and colostral milk samples of a limited number of sows with clinically healthy mammary glands.

Colibacilosis in lactating piglets

Escherichia coli is an enterobacteria that forms part of the normal intestinal microbiota of healthy animals. Usually, E. coli present in animals are communal antipathogenic strains and they even play a beneficial role, since they compete in several ways with the pathogenic strains in the ecological niche of the lumen.

Effect of dietary supplementation of n-3 fatty acids and elevated concentrations of dietary protein on the performance of sows

Dietary supplementation of n-3 fatty acids during lactation improved the growth of nursing piglets.

Ketosis syndrome in sows

It’s true that we have rarely considered the sow as a dairy animal. A sow can produce up to 10 liters of milk at its production peak. If we consider that the effort the sow makes per hour in order to produce milk is almost equal to that of a cow, why do we continue to apply a collective treatment when it comes to feeding the sow?

NutritionAbstract

Linseed oil in the maternal diet increases long chain-PUFA status of the foetus and the newborn during the suckling period in pigs

The PUFA status in newborn piglet is directly related with the use of PUFA enriched diets during gestation and lactation.

Body reserve mobilization during lactation in first parity sows and its effect on second litter size

The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of sow body reserves at weaning and body reserve losses during the first lactation on the second litter size (SLS). A number of 1222 females which reached the second parity without failures such as return to estrus after insemination, abortion or failure to farrow, were analyzed. Measurements of body weight (BW), backfat thickness (BT) and body condition score (BCS) were taken within 24 h after farrowing and on the weaning day.

Impact of an extended photoperiod in farrowing houses on the performance and behaviour of sows and their litters

The effects of an extended photoperiod around parturition and throughout lactation on performances of primiparous sows and their piglets were studied.
