What happens now?
Preventing PWD should ideally be holistic, combining optimal nutrition with best biosecurity, management, and health practices. There is no single substitute for ZnO, so each plan should be tailored to the needs of the individual farm.

Gut Health Challenges for Swine
The life of a pig is full of challenges. Even before birth resources can be scarce. After that, things don’t get any easier. At weaning and even at the finishing stage, pathogens make life hard for a pig. The overarching challenge for swine producers is how to navigate this plethora of challenges while also keeping the amount of antibiotics used to a minimum.

Post-weaning diarrhea
PWD is caused by enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC). 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.

Focusing on feed hygiene and gut health is two steps closer to NAE
To achieve the goal of No Antibiotics Ever (NAE), the industry needs to look at all areas of the production system. Health and nutrition are 2 very important topics to address when the objective is high performing antibiotic free animal production. Our Sofia Rengman zooms in on gut health and feed hygiene as 2 key drivers to help reduce the need for antibiotics and help enable NAE (No Antibiotics Ever) production.

When is it best to use, formic acid or sodium formate?
In general, formic acid is widely recognized as a very effective feed acidifier and antimicrobial agent. However, it can be challenging to decide whether to use a formic acid based product like ProPhorce™ AC 600 and Formic Acid 85 %, or a sodium formate based product like ProPhorce™ AC 299. With that in mind we hope to help you in your choice of the right product for your specific circumstances. There are some key differences in the effects different formulations of formic acid will have in the animal. The difference is whether you primary need is gastric acidification, antimicrobial effect or both.
