The B vitamin levels recommended in NRC (1998) still fits with the requirements of the recent genetic improved pigs

Feeding sows with diets containing high dietary fibre content may be a successful strategy to reduce stress during gestation

Dietary sweeteners in piglets diets may reduce the starvation period after weaning

Feeding sows organic trace minerals may improve sow reproductive performance

Glucose curve characteristics and insulin sensivity may affect litter performance and sow productivity

Bacillus supplemented diets may improve pig performance during the grower-finisher phase and reduce the time spent to pen cleaning

Phytase supplementation combined with organic acids may reduce piglet diarrhoea at weaning

Linseed or fish oil supplementation of growing finishing diets does not improve meat quality in pigs

Ergot contaminated diets may affect sow and litter performance by reducing milk production

Liquid feeding system improve pig performance compared to conventional feeding systems during the growing/finishing phase

Feeding space availability at weaning may affect feed conversion ratio and diarrhoea scorings in piglets

The inclusion of high levels of dietary fibre during the gestation phase does not affect sow reproductive and productive performance

Feeding Mg supplemented diets at the end of the pig finishing phase may reduce stress response from handling and transport prior to slaughter

High levels of dietary crude protein before parturition may have a negative impact on productive and reproductive parameters

L-carnitine supplementation improves sow productive and reproductive performance

The use of vitamin C and ß-carotene in weanling diets does not improve piglet performance or antioxidant activity
