Grower-finisher performance
Optimal production is achieved when the animal reaches a high level of performance and feed efficiency, while maintaining good overall health. Ensuring nutrients are effectively processed and tailored to the pig's needs, while promoting growth and limiting nutrient loss is therefore an important factor in achieving optimal performance.
Maximising feed efficiency
Production efficiency in grower-finisher pigs aims at supporting the animal to achieve the highest possible levels of production and feed efficiency, while maintaining their appropriate health status.
Promoting growth and uniformity
Ensuring uniformity of grower-finisher pigs is essential to facilitate delivery and processing, reduce production costs and optimise earnings.
When animal health is compromised, a substantial part of consumed energy is used for coping, not maintenance, and effective digestion of protein decreases, according to the most recent research.
