Plasma: Solving piglet growth and diarrhoea dilemma [PDF]
Recent studies in European pig farms show that APC’s plasma functional proteins are a key ingredient in nursery diets, helping to solve the dilemma of reducing post-weaning diarrhoea without compromising piglet growth and performance.info:eu-repo ...

FORMULA-DERIVED VERSUS OBSERVED MARKET PRICES: AN APPLICATION FOR SEGREGATED EARLY WEANED PIGS [PDF]
A formula (the "K-State formula") for deriving the price of segregated early weaned (SEW) pigs using corn, soybean meal, and market hog prices was estimated based on equating return on investment for the different phases of swine production farrow ...
