Modelling the lysine requirements of weaned piglets
, 2022 In the Benelux, amino acid requirements for weaned piglets are based on over twenty years old experiments; these were recalculated last year by the Centraal Veevoederbureau (CVB, Central Bureau for Livestock Feeding) to a standardized basis.

Weaning stress and intestinal health of piglets: A review
Frontiers in Immunology, 2022 Weaning is considered to be one of the most critical periods in pig production, which is related to the economic benefits of pig farms. However, in actual production, many piglets are often subjected to weaning stress due to the sudden separation from the sow, the changes in diet and living environment, and other social challenges. Weaning stress often

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.Dietary fiber (DF) modulates meat quality through the gut‐muscle axis by reshaping gut microbiota, improving intestinal integrity, reducing inflammation, and regulating muscle metabolism. These mechanisms influence muscle fiber characteristics and post‐mortem biochemistry, thereby enhancing tenderness, juiciness, color, flavor, and nutritional value of

How Does the Pre-weaning Environment Affect Gut Structure and Function, and Lifetime Performance of the Pig? [PDF]
, 2009 The reduction in feed intake and growth rate that occurs following weaning is of major economic consequence to the pig industry. Currently, a range of antimicrobial products can be used to minimise the impact of weaning on piglet health and subsequent ...
