Multy-phase feeding compared with three-phase feeding or a single diet, in growing pigs
Leaner carcasses are achieved with three-phase feeding than with single diet or multy-phase feeding.
Abstracts - Nutrition
Precision feeding can significantly reduce lysine intake and nitrogen excretion without compromising the performance of growing pigs
Precision feeding is an effective approach to make pig production more sustainable without compromising growth performance.
Impact of maternal vitamin D supplementation on sows and litter
Maternal vitamin D3 supplementation improves serum concentration in both sows and piglets but, does not affect their performance.
Effects of dietary conjugated linoleic acid on cytotoxicity of peripheral blood lymphocytes in piglets
Dietary CLA enhanced cytotoxicity of peripheral blood lymphocytes perhaps through changing its fatty acid composition.
Enzymatic feather meal as protein source for diets in nursery pigs
Enzymatic feather meal may become an alternative protein source for piglet diets.
Effect of unsaturated to saturated fatty acids ratio on the growth performance, carcass and meat quality
Unsaturated to saturated fatty acids ratio affects carcass and meat quality.

Interaction between Zinc and protein sources may affect Zn bioavailability in gestating sows
Zinc and protein sources do not affect Zn bioavailability in gestating sows when they are included in adequate levels.
Effects of zearalenone-diet in ovaries of post-weaning piglets
Zearalenone could promote the autocrine action or expression of the ghrelin gene in piglet ovary, and further accelerate the development of ovaries (follicles).
Assessment of the digestible and metabolizable energy content of lipid sources in growing pigs
PUFA, oleic acid and stearic acid are the most accurate predictors of the DE and ME for the main fat sources used in swine.
Aflatoxin in feed with modified yeast cell wall extract on growth and health of nursery pigs
The use of a yeast cell wall extract reduce the negative impact of low levels of aflatoxin on feed intake in nursery pigs.
Essential fatty acid supplementation during lactation is required to maximize the subsequent reproductive performance of the modern sow
A minimum dietary intake of both α-linolenic and linoleic acid is required for the modern lactating sow to achieve a maximum reproductive outcome.
Progressive reductions in crude protein and indispensable amino acids on carcass quality and uniformity of heavy pigs
In terms of carcass quality, crude protein and essential amino acids could be reduced in finishing diets.
Evaluation of a second iron supplementation and the use of zinc oxide in the prevention of iron-deficient anemia in young pigs
The administration of an additional injection of 200 mg of gleptoferron at 2-weeks of age increased piglet Hb.
Effects of feed presentation (mash or pellet) on intestinal morphology, performance and economic return in finishing pig
The use of pelleted diets improved feed efficiency but increased pig culls and ulceration but not, if mash and pelled is altered.
Growth performance and antioxidant status of nursery pigs affected by peroxidized maize oil
Piglet performance at weaning may be affected by the inclusion of vegetal oils susceptible to peroxidation.
Effects of crude glycerine and gender on Iberian × Duroc cross pigs on carcass and meat quality
Crude glycerine fed in heavy pig diets does not affect carcass and meat quality.
Assessment of the lactation feed intakes including environmental temperatures and betaine supplementation
Sow feed intake is limited at high temperature in ad libitum fed sows during lactation but, betaine supplemented sows may show higher feed intake during this period .
Evaluation of an on-farm method to assess colostrum IgG content in sows
The Brix refractometer provides a simple, fast and inexpensive estimation of colostrum IgG in sows.
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
Influence of the inclusion of orange pulp and carob meal on gaseous emissions from slurry
Orange pulp and carob meal fibre could decrease NH3 y CH4 emissions from slurry.
The effect of varying duration of water restriction on lactating sows
Duration of water restriction did not affect water consumption on a 24-h basis, nursing behaviour or performance.
Assessment of bioavailability of dl-methionine compared with l-methionine fed to nursery pigs
No different bioavalilability is observed between dl-Met and l-Met for piglets.
Effect of water restriction on growth traits, animal welfare and meat and ham quality
Drinkers suppression it not recommended in growing-finishing pigs fed with liquid diets.
Neonatal piglets are able to differentiate more productive from less productive teats
Current results confirmed that teats used in first lactation produce more milk in second lactation, and that piglets are able to detect this difference.
The performance of lactating sows and their offspring assessed over feed presentation
Feed presentation in crumbles or mash for does not affect sow and litter performance.
