Dietary fibre in nutrition and health of piglets
Dietary fibre (DF) is an important component of all but a few feedstuffs used in the feeding of pigs. It is resistant to digestion by endogenous enzymes in the small intestine thereby becoming the main substrate for bacterial fermentation, particularly in the large intestine.
Effect of feeding reduced crude protein and phosphorus diets on weaning-finishing pig growth performance, carcass characteristics, and bone characteristics
Nutrient excretion may be reduced without affecting growth performance, bone variables, and carcass characteristics in growing-fattening pigs
Effect of dietary fat or starch supply during gestation and/or lactation on the performance of sow, piglets' survival and on the performance of progeny after weaning
Piglet survival at farrowing and at weaning may be improved by sow dietary energy supply during gestation and lactation
Growth performance, carcass characteristics, meat quality, and tissue histology of growing pigs fed crude glycerin-supplemented diets
The use of glycerine in pig diets does not negatively affect pig performance or frequency of histological lesions in tissues associated with methanol metabolism
Raw potato starch in weaned pig diets and its influence on postweaning scouts and the molecular microbial ecology of the digestive tract
The use of raw potato starch in weanling diets may reduce the negative effects of postweaning diarrhoea
Lupins in pig diets: Competent alternative to soybean meal (1/2)
Australian sweet lupins are a predominant protein source in Australian pig diets due to economic rationale as opposed to soybean meal (SBM) which is commonly used in most other countries.
Feed intake in the multiparous lactating sow: Its relationship with reactivity during gestation and tryptophan status
High feed intake and low plasmatic Tryptophan levels during the lactation may be directly associated to sow reactivity
Effect of type and timing of oil supplements to sows during pregnancy on the growth performance and endocrine profile of low and normal birth weight offspring
The MUFA dietary supplementation during the first half of gestation may reduce the incidence of low birth weight
Dietary fiber for pregnant sows: Influence on sow physiology and performance during lactation
Higher feed intake during lactation let to improve sow and litter performance
Effects of Porcine Circovirus type 2 and Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae vaccination timing and starter diet source on growth performance of nursery pigs
Weanling diet composition and vaccinating time may affect piglet growth performance at weaning
Feeding of lactating sows
The sow’s intake is affected by the interaction of different factors, not just nutritional but also those connected with the animal, handling or system of production.
Dietary vitamin A concentration alters fatty acid composition in pigs
Dietary vitamin A supplementation does not affect major fatty acid composition of intramuscular lipids, but leads to a higher C16:0 and total SFA concentration in liver lipids.
The addition of ground wheat straw as fibre source in the gestation diet of sows and the effect on sow and litter performance
The dietary inclusion of wheat straw during the gestation phase improves sow and litter productivity.
The effect of heated mash on performance and feeding behaviour on newly weaned piglets
Dietary heating may enhance piglet performance by increasing feed consumption just after weaning
Experts to meet in China to discuss impact of the financial crisis, the global pig markets, genetics, practical pig production in China, feed safety and disease prevention
The Global Pig Forum is the first industry-wide conference for pig production. The forum brings together international experts the entire pig industry. The two-day forum, which is organised by China Animal Agricultural Association (CAAA), includes representatives from the processing sector, breeding companies and feed industry specialists, along with key personnel employed in research, finance and marketing.
