The pre-farrowing feed intake pattern can improve litter performance at weaning
How does a sow's feed intake in the days prior to farrowing influence piglet birth and weaning weights?

Thank you very much for your comment.
In this trial we used 34 sows in batch 1 (9 primiparous and 23 multiparous) and 35 sows in batch 2 (4 primiparous and 31 multiparous).
Regards

Intake patterns of lactating sows: More important than you may realize.
Deviations from the sow's normal consumption pattern during the lactation phase have important production implications.

Nutrition and immunity
Biological alterations in immune and intestinal systems occur immediately after weaning that affect subsequent pig growth and health.

13-Apr-2017FrancisExactly what are the key cytokines involved in the gut immunostimulation?
Sow overmanagement consequences (2/2)
The results reveal that the stress that the sows due to excessive interventions around the moment of the farrowing causes a clear increase in the pre-weaning mortality.

Sow overmanagement consequences (1/2)
We saw aggressiveness in the sows, and we suspected that it could have been caused by the handling around the moment of the farrowing. We decided to register and analyze the data relative to the handling in order to confirm our suspicions.

26-Mar-2014mester.karoly_1The question is not so simple. Increase the fermentable fiber is a good idea, but it does not resolve the issue.
The sow's head two interesting symptom. The eye conjunctiva inflammation. The sow mouth on the edge of white foam. In which I am not sure, but I see the picture of the sow snout skin tissue necrosis.
This causes additional problems. I think that the sow does not compensate, combo, acidosis, metabolitikus and respiratory system eye visible symptom. The other big problem with the release of ammonia poisoning, a symptom of the frothing at the mouth.
To compensate for the acidosis enters the renal route, this is known as escaping the glutamine → 2 HCO3- + 2 NH+ 4. The kidneys of the ammonium ions should choose, but I do not know. At this point, the Organization would reach the goal of having a glutamine residue, namely the two breaks down to HCO3-ion which would compensate the acidosis. Further it is possible to process the liver detoxication function where the urea cycle in the detoxication of ammonia. The liver does not go in the urea cycle,
Two reasons
1. small number of intact liver parenchyma cells in the liver.
2. lysine-arginine antagonism of the urea cycle, unable to function.
This causes the ammonia poisoning. Due to the unfortunate sow liver and kidney damage.
The acidosis can develop kidney problems, liver problems due to ketosis is the sow it causes a huge acid load the animal. The respiratory acidosis due to kidney failure can develop.
Renal insufficiency → blood pressure increase → hypertrophic heart in work → blood stasis in the pulmonary circulation → pulmonary oedema → reduced the effectiveness of respiration, carbon dioxide exhalation → respiratory acidosis.
Ammonia poisoning symptom:
Ammonia is added to the liquor, the displacement of the ammonia paralyses muscle motor cells. Therefore, you can not swallow the sow, so it builds up in the saliva foam in the mouth. The nervous excitement of ammonia poisoning is caused by the State. Muscle tremors, gnash one’s teeth, panic condition.
Notice the pregnant sows is ammonia poisoning.
Why is there such a high mortality in the piglets ?
1. Prenatal asphyxia can also be due to prenatal. In this case, the hogs are special acidosis in utero. At this point the piglets the blood pH from 6.0 to pH also may be affected. Due to the vitality of these pigs have no life.
2. the characteristic of the meconium birth of a pig?
3. you must have surfactant deficient piglets.
4. you see mulberry heart disease neonatal piglets?
5. do you have the villous atrophy in piglets?
Wrong thinking.
There is no shortage of animals symptom, not the problem that we do not do something in the feed mixture.
Solving the problem is that some of the material to be removed from the feed mixture!
Wisely.
This is a serious nutrition physiological causes. I feel sorry for the animals, and the economic damage is enormous.
I have been doing for years. There are a lot of practical experience.
It is not easy, but it can be removed.
Unfortunately my English is not good. Excuse Me.

Competitive advantages with the use of information (II) – Another step towards the real-time management of the swine sector?
In a very near future we will have an enormous amount of data with more speed and ease than ever, and also from very different origins.

Competitive advantages with the use of information (I). How do the companies use it?
Only the 17% of the companies use more than the 75% of the collected information and only the 27% of them think that they use it better than their competitors.
