Effective herd renewal is not possible without a specialised approach to feeding replacement pigs on the farm, which should be focused on the formation of replacement gilts with a strong body type ready for reproduction.
The focus should not be on the growth rate but on the complete development of the musculoskeletal, muscular and reproductive systems. And it requires a special approach to providing the body with nutrients and preparing diets.
The main objectives of the nutrition programme for replacement pigs are as follows:
- Ensuring the strength of the musculoskeletal system;
- Creating a healthy and reproductive organism;
- Establishing long-term use of sows in production conditions;
- Creating a solid foundation for high-producing sows and developing their genetic potential.
