Citric acid supplementation on performance, digestibility and milk composition in sows
Supplementation of citric acid improves the absorption of dietary Ca, P and protein.
Gut digestion of different starch sources affects backfat thickness and growth performance
Pig performance an carcass quality are not affected by the source of starch used in growing diets.
Ad libitum feeding during the peripartal period maximizes lactational feed intake
Ad libitum feeding during the peripartal period limits excessive loss of body reserves improving litter growth and weaning weight.
Novel fiber ingredients affect AID of DM, CP, GE and TDF
The use of new fibre sources may reduce the dry matter and energy digestibility in pigs.
In-feed use of heavy metal micronutrients in swine and its role in multidrug-resistant Salmonella
The findings demonstrate strong association between heavy metal tolerance and antimicrobial resistance, particularly among Salmonella serotypes important in public health.

AbstractPlant extracts improves gut health by reducing the severity of E. coli challenge
Use plant extract could enable piglets to better withstand the infections that are often associated with weaning.
Use of mayonnaise and nuts meal as by-products in liquid feed for growing-finishing pigs
Using by-products from food industry can reduce the feed costs without affecting pig performance or meat quality.
Linseed oil and fish oil in sow diets
Linseed oil in sow diets may improve reproductive performance and pre-weaning growth of piglets.
Tree tannins to control manure odor
Tannins from the quebracho tree can control the production of compounds that cause manure odors, according to studies by U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) scientists.
Multiphase feeding on performance, body composition, nutrient excretion and feed costs in pigs
Daily multiphase feeding may be a useful tool to reduce nutrient excretion in manure in growing-finishing pigs.
Dietary Lactobacillus brevis supplement on the performance and immune function of piglets
L. Brevis has intestinal immunomodulatory effects although the low capacity to colonize the porcine gut.
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
Saccharomyces cerevisiae affects postweaning diarrhea, immune response, and growth performance in weaned piglets
S. cerevisiae should be considered as a successful alternative for the prevention and treatment of diarrhoea in piglets caused by ETEC.
Dietary CLA supplementation affects technological quality of backfat of pigs
More saturated fatty acids improve the technological properties of backfat.
Protease and xylanase on growth performance, nutrient digestibility, and manure odour
Xylanase reduce gaseous emissions and can moderate the odorous impact of pig manure.
Colostrum intake is a key factor for survival and successful growth
Piglets׳ colostrum intake associates with daily weight gain and survival until weaning.
Maternal body composition and feed allowance during pregnancy on growth of the offspring
Maternal backfat depth in gestating sows influences on offspring growth and carcass lean yield.
Use of canola meal with DDGS in diets for growing-finishing barrows and gilts
Pigs can be fed diets including up to 240 g/kg canola meal together with 150 g/kg DDGS without affecting performance and carcass quality.
