Developing equations for rapid and accurate prediction of carcass fat quality

The concepts of least cost diet formulation, feeding of alternative feed ingredients and production throughput have become common practice in the swine industry. The inclusion of alternative ingredients containing greater levels of unsaturated fat in the diet can have negative…

The impact of pad cooling on barn environment, finishing pig performance and producer profitability

Use of evaporative cooling pads are common on sow farms in the Southeastern U.S., yet their potential use on grow-finish facilities to alleviate seasonality in growth performance has yet to be characterized.

Applying Enzyme Technology to Optimize the Utilization of Fibrous Feed Ingredients in Swine Diets – Applied Feeding Studies

The long-term goal of this project was to improve the utilization of fibrous ingredients in swine through the strategic application of enzymes. We hypothesized that supplementation of enzymes to feed ingredients (in this case, distillers’ dried grains with solubles (DDGS))…

Practical evaluation of linoleic acid and antioxidant supplementation for lactating sows housed under high ambient temperatures

High producing sows are under catabolic (resulting in tissue loss) and oxidative stress during lactation and this will impair sow reproductive performance. Moreover, reduced feed intake during high ambient temperatures aggravates these conditions. Providing proper nutrition to sows during periods…
