Diarrhoea in weaned piglets: Is a different approach needed?
We need to understand what is happening and what the circumstances are that cause bacteria that are also present in the microbiota of healthy piglets to multiply in such a way that they are capable of causing diarrhoea.
Use of dried fruit and vegetable pomaces in pig diets
Dried pomaces supplementation in growing-fattening dieta may improve meat quality and lipid profile of pork.
Herd level risk factors for stomach ulcers in finishing pigs
The influence of feed structure and pelleting on the development of gastric ulcers in pigs is well established. Some studies have shown a beneficial effect of access to straw on gastric health. However, the role of other factors, e.g. disease and stress, is not well understood.
Feeding level during gestation affects farrowing and litter performance
Increasing feeding level during gestation may improve piglet body weight at birth but have a negative impact on feed intake and backfat loss during lactation.
Conventional and non-conventional feedstuff and co-products for liquid feed for growing-finishing pigs
Mayonnaise, almond meal, liquid bakery co-product and high-moisture corn may be suitable feed ingredients in liquid diets for growing-finishing pigs.
Water consumption and quality: Relevance at postweaning
To achieve a good feed intake it is essential to reach adequate water consumption
Feed supplementation of lactobacillus affects performance and immune function of piglets
Feed supplemented strains have limited ability to compete with the indigenous intestinal microbiota of piglets.
Feed additives decrease survival of delta coronavirus in nursery pig diets
Feed additives that contained phosphoric acid, citric acid, or fumaric acid were the most effective in reducing virus survival.
FAO: cereal prices continue to rise
The FAO Food Price Index rose notably in January, led by sugar and cereals, even as global markets remain well supplied.
Dietary Lonicera macranthoides in pig diets to improve amino acid profile in meat and serum
Lonicera macranthoides supplementation in growing finishing diets may improve free amino acids content in fresh meat.
EU committee to re-evaluate zinc oxide decision
According to NPA, the evidence behind the shock recommendation to ban zinc oxide from piglet feed is to be reviewed, following a number of appeals from across the EU.

The use of palygorskite in sow diets reduces oxidative stress in gestating sows.
EU-Brazil: joint action plan towards responsible soy production and trade
Brazilian Soy Producers and Processors and the European Feed and Vegetable Oil Industry agree on joint action plan towards responsible soy production and trade.
Effect of heat stress on amino acid digestibility in pigs
Pigs exposed to heat stress increase their body temperature and reduce the size of their intestinal villi, thus increasing the loss of endogenous AAs and reducing the abundance of AA transporters in the intestine, as well as apparent and standardized ileal digestibility of AAs.
Effects of feeding dry pasta by-products to Italian heavy pigs on performance, carcass and ham
Food by-products rich in starch and low in fat may be useful to modulate fatty acid profile in heavy pigs slaughtered up to 150 kg.
