Probiotics, prebiotics and colostrum as feed additives for piglets under vaccination against PRRSV
The development of piglet immune system under vaccination against PRRSV it is not improved by the use of probiotics and prebiotics or colostrum.
Abstracts - Nutrition
Different feeding levels during wean-to-estrus and first week of gestation of sows
High feeding level during the wean-to-oestrus may increase farrowing rate but also may increase stillborn rate and reduce piglet birth weight.
Feeding sodium butyrate in the late finishing diets for Salmonella prevalence
Sodium butyrate supplementation in finishing diets may reduce Salmonella carriage, shedding and seroprevalence in commercial conditions.
Sugar cane extract supplementation and meat quality improvement in growing-finishing pigs
Dietary sugar cane extract supplementation may promote enhanced oxidative stability and improve meat quality in growing finishing pigs.
Fermented soybean meal for swine weanling diets
Fermented soybean meal may become a suitable and economic protein source for weanling diets according nutrient digestibility and intestinal health.
Arginine and amino acids supplementation in gestating gilts
Arginine and other amino supplementation in gestating gilts improve farrowing and litter performance in low prolificity sows (≤14 total piglets born).

Diet presentation form affects pig growing performance and carcass characteristics
Fine grinding improves feed efficiency for meal but not for pelleted diets although pelleting improves average daily gain in growing pigs.
Fiber source and enzyme addition may affect nutrient digestibility in growing pigs
Fiber coming from wheat bran has higher negative impact on protein and fat digestibility than soybean hulls in growing pigs.
Purified pig immunoglobulins as candidate for dietary zinc replacement
The use of purified pig immunoglobulins may clearly reduce diarrhea at similar extend than ZnO in weanling pigs.

AbstractSelenium and vitamin E affects antioxidant status and reproductive performance in sows
Organic Se supplementation in sow diets may improve antioxidant capacity and reproductive performance.
Use of alfalfa silage is a suitable feed ingredient for fattening pigs in organic pig production systems
Alfalfa silage may be used as suitable AA and protein source for growing pigs for organic pig production, although its methionine content could also be interesting as alternative feed ingredient for conventional pigs.
Sunlight exposure in white pigmented pigs may increase circulating vitamin D levels
Vitamin D deficiency in growing pigs can be cheaply overcome by moderate sunlight exposure.
Encapsulated organic acids affects performance, immunity and intestinal health in weanling pigs
Encapsulated organic acid supplementation may improve performance due to an improvement of intestinal health and immunity after weaning.
Arginine supplementation during lactation affects sow metabolism and improve litter performance
Sow metabolism during lactation is affected by arginine supplementation promoting litter weigh improvement.
Reduction of protein levels as strategy to reduce environmental impact of pig production
A reduction of the environmental impact derived from pig production is possible by a suitable nutrient requirement adjust.
Comparing gestating sows housing between electronic sow feeding system and a conventional stall
Although the better sow and litter performance for group housed sows with electronic feeding system some improvements are still required in terms of body scratch and locomotion disorders.
Effects of dietary supplementation with freshwater microalgae on gut health in weaned piglets
Dietary supplementation with microalgae as an alternative to antibiotic use was studied.
Influence of pelleting and sodium metabisulfite on contaminated feed ingredients with vomitoxin for nursery pig
Pelleting diets and sodium metabisulfite supplementation previously to heat conditioning may reduce the negative impact of vomitoxin in nursery pigs.
Data sheets: raw materials and additives
Technical sheets of the main raw materials and additives used in swine feed. They include a comparison of nutritional values from various sources, product
Dietary supplementation of Enterococcus faecium, mannan oligosaccharide and benzoic acid in fattening pigs
Dietary combination of probiotics, prebiotics and organic acids improve growth, health and immunity in fattening pigs.
Evaluating dietary inclusion of a herbal extract mixture and different oils effects on pig performance and meat quality
Fatty acid profile and sensorial properties of meat can be improved by dietary plant extract supplementation in growing pigs.
In-feed organic acids as a strategy to combat Salmonella in growing pigs
Sodium butyrate or a blend of formic and citric acid in feed may be considered as a cost-effective control measure to reduce Salmonella faecal shedding in commercial herds.
Diet digestibility and growth performance of weaned pigs fed Brassica napus canola meal
Soybean meal in weanling diets may be partially replaced by canola meal without affecting performance parameters but, canola meal quality has to be taken into account.
Sodium butyrate supplementation in lactating sows and nursery pigs
Coated sodium butyrate supplementation may improve immunoglobulin concentration in milk.
Use of digestible rather than total amino acid in diet formulation increases nitrogen retention and reduces nitrogen excretion from pigs
One of the goals of swine diet formulation is minimizing nitrogen (N) excretion as well as maximizing N retention.
