Varying creep feed duration affects pre-weaning and post-weaning performance and behavior of piglet and sow
Creep feed initiated from day 5 and 10 reduce diarrhea scores in piglets and the estrus interval in sows.

Viscosity and fermentability of dietary fibre affect nutrient digestibility and digesta characteristics in grower pigs
High-viscous, low-fermentable dietary fibre increases the proportion of a diet that is digested in the small intestine.
Influence of particle size and multi-enzyme supplementation of fibrous diets on weaning and growing pigs
A reduction in particle size and multi-enzyme supplementation are useful strategies in the post-weaning period, but not in the growing period.
Dietary lysine restriction during the finishing period on barrows and gilts intended for dry-cured ham production
Different feeding programs might be needed for barrows and gilts to optimize the production of high quality dry-cured hams.
Increased dietary zinc oxide changes the bacterial core and enterobacterial composition in the ileum of piglets
Increased dietary ZnO could lead to an increased competition among enterobacteria and, consequently, reduce the occurrence of pathogenic E. coli strains.
A high dietary concentration of inulin is necessary to reduce the incidence of swine dysentery
80 g/kg dietary inulin may protect pigs against developing swine disentery by modifying the microbiota in the gastrointestinal tract.

Dietary protein/carbohydrate ratio affects on fat deposition and gene expression of finishing pigs
An increase in intramuscular fat in pigs fed low protein diets is related to tissue-specific activation of gene expression.
Dietary lysine and energy levels affect on growth performance and apparent total tract digestibility of nutrients in weanling pigs
Increasing dietary lysine and energy levels improves growth performance and apparent total tract digestibility of nutrients.
Modeling the fate of dietary phosphorus in the digestive tract of growing pigs
A mathematical model serves as a tool to study phosphorus digestibility for different feedstuffs and feeding strategies.
CLA during last week of gestation and lactation alters colostrum and milk fat composition and performance of reproductive sows
CLA administration to sows reduces backfat thickness loss during the lactation period and lets to higher piglet weight at weaning.
Glutamine supplementation improves intestinal barrier function in a weaned piglet model of Escherichia coli infection
Glutamine supplementation may be useful in reducing the severity of weaning-related gastrointestinal infections.
Folic acid affects performance of suckling piglets and sows during lactation
Supplementation with folic acid in the diets of lactating sows increases milk production, improves milk quality and the performance of piglets.
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
Feed preference in pigs: Effect of selected protein, fat, and fiber sources at different inclusion rates
The preference for the different feed ingredients should be taken into account during diet formulation as well as nutrient composition and ingredients cost.
Lysine intake during late gestation on reproductive performance, colostrum composition, blood metabolites and hormones of multiparous sows
Higher lysine levels than those recommended by the NRC improve reproductive performance for multiparous gestating sows.
Impact of acetic acid concentration of fermented liquid feed on growth performance of piglets
High levels of acetic acid in fermented liquid feed can impair palatability of piglets.
Sow litter size is increased in the subsequent parity when lactating sows are fed diets containing omega 3 fatty acids from fish oil
Feeding omega 3 fatty acids as a way to increase the sows’ litter size.
Feed intake restriction and feeding twice or 6 times daily on finishing pigs
Increasing feeding frequency from 2 to 6 times daily increases ADG and feed efficiency of floor-fed, group housed finishing pigs.
Easily fermentable carbohydrates reduce skatole formation in the distal intestine of entire male pigs
Chicory inulin and raw potato starch as ingredients to reduce the boar taint of meat from intact male pigs.

Dietary lysine levels change processed product characteristics of immunologically castrated male pigs
No differences in further processed product characteristics among physically and immunologically castrated male pigs were found.
Metabolic impact of zinc oxide on porcine intestinal cells and enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli K88
The role of zinc oxide in improving piglet health is via a different mechanism to that previously proposed.
Dietary crude protein and phytase-xylanase supplementation of wheat grain based diets affect energy metabolism and enteric methane in growing finishing pigs
A combination of dietary crude protein and P reduction with added phytase is the key to optimize pig production efficiency, while minimizing their environmental impacts.
Dietary calcium level as calcium carbonate does not affect the apparent total tract digestibility of calcium, but reduces digestibility of phosphorus by growing pigs
The greatest values for apparent total tract digestibility of P are obtained when the dietary Ca to P ratio is around 1.1:1.
Conjugated linoleic acid supplementation affect growth, carcass characteristics and fatty acid profiles in growing-finishing pigs
The conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) concentration in pig tissues increases linearly by the CLA supplementation in diet.
Oral administration of multispecies microbial supplements to sows influences the composition of gut microbiota and fecal organic acids in their post-weaned piglets
Temporal administration of probiotics to pregnant sows has clear effects on the establishment of gut microbiota to piglets after weaning.
