Protein is the building block for cells. As you develop and grow your quality sheep flock, your priorities should include the health and nutrition of your flock. If health and nutrition remain at the top of your list, you should offer adequate protein to your ewes when they need it most. When a ewe’s diet is deficient in protein, fetal development, growth and milk production can all be ...
This type of agricultural lighting Is suitable for enhancing early pregnancy while promoting weight gain at the weaning stage. In addition, the increasing light intensity can improve litter size and birth weight to a large extent, expanding the final production. ...
The collaboration’s initial focus is on development of therapeutic proteins against enterotoxigenic E. coli (ETEC), a major cause of post-weaning diarrhea (also known as scours) in the commercial swine industry. ...
For pig feed pellets making, the screen sieve diameter of feed hammer mill is less than 1mm, while for weaned piglet is only 0.3mm. Raw Materials Mixing Mixing is an essential operation for the whole pig feed pellets production line. ...
The solution that was decided upon for alternative feed was to start the tuna larvae off with a diet of larvae from zooplankton and other fish species, eventually weaning them off that and onto an artificial diet. After 13 weeks, the juvenile Pacific Bluefin Tuna are transferred to either NOAA’s Southwest Fisheries Science Center, which uses a flow-through tank system, or ...

Benefits of paired housing include: reduced weaning distress, faster weight gain, promotion of solid feed intake, increased socialization, and minimized cross-suckling. ...
By spending 23,5 EUR per produced sow per year, EP199 has resulted in an extra three weaned piglets per produced sow per year, 0.7 piglets more were weaned per weaning and 700 grams extra weight gain was recorded before weaning. ...
During gestation and lactation complementary feed for the sow can – without feeding the offspring – increase[1]: the utilization of nutrients and minerals for both sow and piglets the level of haemoglobin for both sow and piglet the number of antibodies in the colostrum by 30-40 % bone strength, cartilage and mechanical properties for the piglets And reduce: the ...
The platform integration offers four unique Förster-Technik data-driven widgets to track and display the following information: Calf Rearing Characteristics, including calf data such as birth date, projected wean date, parentage, weight, and feeding details Drinking Behavior, which shows the volume of milk consumed per day Drinking Speed, which shows how quickly the ...
”The mortality dropped, and the piglets weigh in average 7-800 grams more. Even though the sows are weaning larger litters, they are in good condition afterwards – and we wean after five weeks”, says Poul Grøntved. ...
“Producers told us they wanted a product like this help manage immunity and protect both the breeding herd and growing pigs from wean to finish.” PRRS and Mhp can have clinical impact at similar phases of production in your production system, he notes. ...
According to research carried out at the Dutch Swine Innovation Centre (VIC Sterksel), gradual weaning at the age of 9 weeks seems to be a good strategy to prevent the post weaning growth check, and to improve the behaviour of piglets and growing-finishing pigs. The development of piglets raised in a multi-suckling system was studied with abrupt ...
It is a synergistic alliance of different strains of inactivated yeasts (including Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Cyberlindnera jadinii) that supports animals during stressful and challenging conditions such as weaning, feed transitions, and sanitary challenges. YANG can be used in most feed production processes. ...
Probiotic yeast S. boulardii interacts with intestinal gene expression in weaning piglets Weanin g is a key period of stress in swine production. ...
Meeting after meeting, we have seen evolution of the scope for LEVUCELL SB applications to accompany these challenges: from the sow to the piglets, from feed digestion to immunity… This edition was no exception, with fresh insights into effects of the probiotic yeast on three major aspects: weaning stress in piglets, alternative to antibiotics usage in feed, and heat ...
Lallemand Animal Nutrition is pleased to announce that the Panel on Additives and Products or Substances used in Animal Feed (FEEDAP) of the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) has given a positive scientific opinion for use of BACTOCELL®* (Pediococcus acidilactici MA 18/5M, deposited at Institut Pasteur) as a zootechnical feed additive in minor avian species, such as duck and game (quail, ...
Followed a brief introduction of Lallemand group and Lallemand Animal Nutrition delivered by LAN regional manger Yong ZHOU, Pierre LEBRETON presented the importance of keeping gut microbiota diversity especially in fragile cellulolytic bacteria during weaning period on piglet immunity and consequent growth performance. Different practical ways such as sow management, feeding mode ...
YANG is a concentrate of defenses supporting animals during stressful and challenging conditions such as weaning, feed transitions, and sanitary challenges. YANG can be used in most feed production processes. ...
“The effects are numerous: Piglets’ average daily gain can be increased due to better milk production; sows appear to lose less body weight during lactation; and the wean-to-estrus interval can be reduced,” he says. “We know that significant weight loss during the first lactation has negative effects on future litter size, a phenomenon known as ...
Modern livestock breeding conditions are important sources of oxidative stress, which finally leads to loss of performance, health and reproduction issues. Early gestation in sow or weaning in piglet are key sources of oxidative stress in pig production. ...
