How to combat heat stress in pigs
Pigs are particularly vulnerable to heat stress due to their limited ability to dissipate body heat and genetic selection for higher productivity, which has reduced their heat tolerance. Improved technical results increase heat production, and today's lines produce 30% more heat than those in the 1980s.
Impact of ground herb and essential oil phytobiotics on gut health and growth performance in nursery pigs challenged with F18+Escherichia coli
Herb based phytobiotics supplementation may improve gut health in weanling pigs.
Antioxidant and osmolyte enriched or energy-dense diet: effect on heat-stressed finishing pigs
Supplementation with antioxidants and osmolytes may improve weight gain in heat-stressed finishing pigs.
Optimal benzoic acid supplementation enhances growth, nitrogen utilization, and carcass traits while reducing ammonia emissions in pigs from weaning to market
Dietary benzoic acid supplementation may improve growth performance, N retention while reducing the environmental impact in growing-finishing pigs.
Impact of a phytogenic feed additive on diarrhea incidence, intestinal histomorphology and fecal excretion of F4-fimbriated enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli in post-weaning piglets
Phytogenic feed additive supplementation to piglets challenged with F4-fimbriated enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli reduced the prevalence of fecal E. coli excretion and improved jejunal histomorphology.
Growing evidence around phytogenics supporting more resilient piglet weaning
One of the major challenges during weaning is post-weaning diarrhea, impacting nearly 25% of piglets in European countries. A promising strategy to boost resilience and help piglets navigate the stress of weaning can be, among others, the use of phytogenics.
Effects of supplemental choline chloride on growth and carcass traits in growing-finishing pigs
Dietary choline supplementation in growing-finishing pigs may improve carcass traits without any negative impact on growth performance.
Boosting piglet health after weaning: the role of the natural emulsifier glyceryl polyethylene glycol ricinoleate in gut development
Dietary glyceryl polyethylene glycol ricinoleate supplementation may improve intestinal health in post-weaning piglets.
Effects of diammonium phosphate supplementation in low-protein diets of growing pigs on growth performance, carcass traits, and meat quality
Supplementing a low-protein diet with diammonium phosphate may improve growth performance and the amino acid content related to meat flavor.
Mitigating heat stress in pigs: effects of an additive-enriched diet on performance, health, and water intake during hot weather
Osmoprotectants and antioxidant supplementation may reduce the negative impact of heat stress in growing finishing pigs.
Orffa's Excential Energy Plus: World's first nutritional emulsifier to secure GFLI certification
This recognition positions Excential Energy Plus as the first Nutritional Emulsifier globally to be independently validated for its environmental footprints.
Sucrose inclusion in sow diets: Does it improve palatability for piglets at weaning?
Mammals, such as pigs, have a keen attraction to sweet tastes. They are able to perceive the five basic tastes: umami, sweet, bitter, sour, and salty. Sugars such as sucrose, glucose, and lactose are especially attractive to them. This trait seems to have evolved as a natural mechanism for detecting high-calorie energy sources.
Can blended phytogenics promote growth as effective alternatives to antibiotics in weaned piglets?
Phytogenic supplementation in weanling diets may exert growth promoter effects as in pigs during the nursery period.
Microbial additive supplementation: effects on growth performance, blood metabolites, fecal microflora, and carcass characteristics of growing-finishing pigs
Dietary supplementation microbial additive may improve performance and intestinal health in growing-finishing pigs.
Organic acids: Formic acid, lactic acid, and propionic acid
This data sheet presents a brief compilation of scientific studies that have evaluated the effect of formic acid, lactic acid, and propionic acid on pig gastrointestinal health and production performance at different stages of production.
