Slow-growth diet before breeding offers better long-range health in pigs
Science Notes: Researchers looking for more ways to improve sow longevity
University of Arkansas researchers have found that a slow-growth sow diet results in more piglets and healthier and longer-lived females. Slower weight gain for female pigs before breeding led to improvements in performance throughout four breeding cycles, according to Charles Maxwell, professor of animal science. It’s common practice to feed female breeding pigs the same […] Read more
