The energy booster for highly productive sows
The continuous genetic improvements in pig husbandry has led to an increased emphasis on reproduction which has resulted in a higher ovulation rate and larger litters.
On the other hand, problems are increasingly reported, including low birth and weaning weights, difficulties in initiating milk production, and fertility problems. It is clear that modern high productive sows need to be supported to be able to keep up with these large litters and high productivity.
