A regional evaluation of the effect of fibre type in gestation diets on sow reproductive performance
Sows fed a diet supplemented with 0.30% of psyllium showed higher body weight along the reproductive cycle but weaned lighter piglets
Abstracts - Nutrition
Commercial validation of the true ileal digestible lysine requirement for eleven to twenty-seven kilogram pigs
A minimum level of 1.30% of true ileal digestibility Lys is required to improve ADG and F:G in pigs between 11 to 27 kg of body weight
Creep feed intake during lactation enhances net absorption in the small intestine after weaning
Piglets eating creep feed during lactation have better small intestine functionality at weaning.
The effect of inclusion of oat hulls in piglet diets based on raw or cooked rice and maize
A rice based diet may be more favourable for the transition of weaned piglets compared to a maize based diet.
Influence of different phosphorus levels and phytase supplementation in gestation diets on sow performance
Low phosphorus levels in gestation diets may not necessarily determine a decrease in the sow performance.
How much lactose for piglet diets?
Lactose content in the diet of weaning pigs may vary depending on the conditions to which the animals are raised.

The effect of dietary protein and fermentable carbohydrates levels on growth performance and intestinal characteristics in newly weaned piglets
Modifying gut fermentation feeding weaned piglets with fermentable carbohydrates do not necessarily improve performance.
Effect of dietary Leucine and Lysine on intramuscular fat content in finishing pigs
Low Lysine levels with high Leucine levels can represent a strategy to increase the intramuscular fat content.
Intestinal development and growth performance of early weaned piglets fed a low-threonine diet
Providing a well-balanced diet in Threonine is critical in order to maintain the mucosal structure of ileum in early weaned piglets.
Effect of weaning age, protein nutrition and enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli challenge on the health of newly weaned piglets
Weaning age and dietary crude protein content determine differences on the resistance of weaned piglets to the onset of postweaning colibacillosis.
Effect of level of feed restriction during growth and/or fattening on fatty acid composition and lipogenic enzyme activity in heavy pigs
A low feeding level during the growing phase may be a useful tool to enhance the fatty acid composition in heavy Iberian pigs.
Influence of access to grass silage on the welfare of sows introduced to a large dynamic group
Provision of silage racks to gestating sows is helpful to reduce stereotypic behaviours when sows are housed in large dynamic groups.
Data sheets: raw materials and additives
Technical sheets of the main raw materials and additives used in swine feed. They include a comparison of nutritional values from various sources, product
Effect of particle size of cereals in the lactation diet on the performance of the sow and piglets
Reducing particle size of the lactation diets below 1000 µm do not necessarily represent and advantage for the productivity of the sow during lactation.
Organic acids in diets for entire male pigs: Effect on skatole level, microbiota in digesta, and growht performance
Organic acid addition in growing-finishing diets does not modify skatole concentration in the adipose tissue of entire male pigs.
Energy value of crude glycerol in 11 and 110 kg pigs
Metabolizable Energy content of crude glycerol varies among weaning piglets and finishing pigs.
Glutamine supplementation influences immune development in the newly weaned piglet
Glutamine in the weaning diets can favour a better immune status in piglets.
Investigations on potential dietetic effects of lactulose in pigs
Feeding lactulose to piglets increases hindgut fermentation, and in the growing
pig may determine a better hindgut environment for the development of Salmonella

Studies on the tryptophan requeriment of lactating sows. Part 1: Estimation of the tryptophan requeriment by performance
Increases in the tryptophan content in corn-based lactation diets, determines increases in the feed intake and performance of the sow

Synchronising the availability of amino acids and glucose increases protein retention in pigs
Asynchrony in the supply of amino acids and glucose to the pig provokes a higher utilization of amino acids as a source of energy
Dietary corn germ containing phytic acid prevents pork meat lipid oxidation while maintaining normal animal growth performance
Presence of phytic acid in finishing pig diets may provoke a reduction in the oxidative processes in pork meat.
Effects of crystalline amino acid supplementation to the diet on odour from pig manure
Dietary metionine and cystine contribute significantly to the odour emission from pig facilities.
Hormonal response to dietary L-arginine supplementation in heat-stressed sows
Dietary L-arginine supplementation modifies blood insulin concentration of lactating sows.
Compensatory growth response in pigs: Effects on growth performance, composition of weight gain at carcass and muscle levels, and meat quality
Feeding restriction during the growing period followed by an ad libitum regime during the finishing determines a decrease in the content of intramuscular fat.
Effects of the lactoferrin on the growth performance, intestinal microflora and morphology of weanling pigs
Lactoferrin in the weaning pig diets permits to improve growth performance, reducing diarrhoea presentation and modifying intestinal morphology in the weaning period.
