How heat stress disrupts the body of poultry and pigs
It is summertime in the Northern hemisphere, which means we need to think about heat stress by optimizing our processes to shield animals from heat and/or by equipping the animals to deal with heat stress better. When animals experience heat stress they have a hard time keeping their body temperature at optimal levels. In that process sodium and bicarbonate play pivotal roles. Roles that are sometimes misunderstood and has many myths surrounding it.

Antibiotic reduction for swine
Antibiotics are undoubtedly one of mankind’s most valuable discovery. They help us - and farm animals - to fight diseases caused by bacterial pathogens. They also improve the growth performance of animals. We depend on them so much that antibiotic resistance is one of this century’s biggest concerns for our species.

Pathogenic pressure - Swine
Pathogens are a thorn in the side for anyone in animal production. They can reduce the animal’s performance and put food safety at risk. A pathogenic strike in finisher herds can be very unfortunate and extremely costly for the producer since some of the pathogens are known to cause sudden deaths among the animals just before slaughter. Trying to keep the use of antibiotics limited while under pathogenic pressure can make things even more challenging.

Zinc oxide: solving one problem but creating another?
The weaning transition is on one of the most critical stages of the pig’s life. Zinc oxide (ZnO) in pharmacological doses has long been known as an effective way of preventing post-weaning diarrhea (PWD), and controlling E. coli infections.

Feed acidification - by today’s standards
Feed acidification is the process of reducing the pH of feed by using organic acids. This process has proven its efficiency in helping to reduce harmful bacteria and improving feed digestibility for decades. Today’s solutions for feed acidification are more effective, better targeted to specific applications and often non-corrosive. Some even have additional benefits such as allowing you to influence the dietary electrolyte balance. Despite being a producer of formic and propionic acid, we believe the world is best served with these next generation solutions that are safer and more effective.

Feeding strategies can be sustainable and profitable when raising piglets without zinc oxide
Interview with Dr. Francesc Molist Weaning is an important but highly stressful time for piglets. Several stressors put huge pressure on their digestive and immune systems making piglets vulnerable to diseases, like post-weaning diarrhea (PWD). Zinc oxide (ZnO) has been successfully used as a cost-effective solution of mitigating PWD for many years. But in 2017, the European Commission supported a decision by the European Medicines Agency to move away from using pharmacological doses of ZnO in piglets’ feeds. Because the benefit of using ZnO does not outweigh the negative environmental impact and the associated risk of increasing antimicrobial resistance bacteria. This new context demands for alternative solutions to prevent PWD and maintain the piglet’s health status during weaning. A multifaceted approach needs to be taken which incorporates biosecurity, health care, management, and nutrition. Join us in this interview with DVM, PhD, BBS Francesc Molist, Research & Development manager at Schothorst Feed Research (Netherlands) where we discuss new nutritional approaches when feeding piglets after the ZnO ban and give useful advice for pig producers to maintain a sustainable and profitable production during these new times.

Weaning Winners Program
The Weaning Winners program from Perstorp addresses key nutritional risks. This strategy provides the piglet with an exogenous and endogenous defense shield that will act like multiple lines of defense to ultimately reduce the risk of PWD.

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.
