The life of a pig is full of challenges. Even before birth resources can be scarce. After that, things don’t get any easier.

It reduces animal welfare and causes huge economic losses due to the high costs associated with slower growth rates, increased veterinary treatments, and higher mortality. And all this during one of the most important phases of a piglet’s growth cycle, the weaning phase.
