Webinar: How to feed piglets for a better start?

26 January 2021

Without a doubt, “Young Animal Nutrition” is one of the most prominent themes in the livestock business these days. In addition to the perinatal period, the time of weaning piglets from the sow is the most difficult link in the entire pig production cycle. On one hand, young animals are just getting ready to live independently and on the other hand, at the time of weaning, piglets face a number of stress factors. 

In order to effectively produce piglets, we must take care of all production elements at this stage. However, in the prevention of disturbances around weaning, the role of nutrition seems to be very important. Factors such as high feed digestibility, its limited buffering properties or the presence of bioactive ingredients effectively keep the piglets in good condition.

Learn more on how to feed piglets for a better start via this webinar. We will also introduce our new Earlyfeed brand during this webinar.

Join our Polish colleagues on Tuesday 26 January at 01.00 PM (CET) and listen to our interesting speakers who will share their insights. (Webinar will be given in Polish).

Speakers

  • Dr. Katarzyna Chilomer (Senior recipe specialist at Agrifirm Poland) will talk about the specific functioning of piglet physiology in the period around weaning. She will discuss the development of piglets’ enzymatic activity and how it can be stimulated.
  • Pawel Sklorz (Technical advisor at Agrifirm Poland) will focus on the most important nutritional strategies used in today’s piglet nutrition. He will talk about reducing the level of protein, using calcium sources that do not adversely affect the pH of the digestive tract, and the role of fiber in the proper functioning of the digestive tract of young animals.
