Summary of the 27th IPVS and 15th ESPHM-ECPHM: Reproduction, welfare, and nutrition
In this third installment, Antonio Palomo summarizes the papers presented on reproduction, nutrition, precision livestock farming, and other aspects of swine production.
Impact of low-protein diets with added essential amino acids on growth and nutrient digestibility in growing pigs
EU-27 oilseed production in 2023 and forecasts for 2024
Oilseed production in the EU-27 for the 2023 harvest and forecast for 2024.
Effect of reducing dietary crude protein level on growth performance, blood profiles, nutrient digestibility, carcass traits, and odor emissions in growing-finishing pigs
The effect of different dietary protein sources on growth performance, antioxidant capacity, immunity, faecal microbiota and metabolites in weaned piglets
Benefits and challenges of sugar beet pulp in gestating sow diets
Interest in incorporating insect meal in piglet feed
All livestock sectors are seeking to reduce imports of raw protein materials. Insect meals belong to the category of concentrated protein sources, but their nutritional characteristics are poorly documented and attempts to incorporate them into swine feed have been the subject of few publications.
Data sheet: Lysine
Data sheet with the nutritional value and the most recent studies on lysine supplementation.
Nutritional management to reduce nitrogen excretion
Controlled crude protein reduction and use of essential amino acids can improve feed efficiency, decrease water consumption, and reduce nitrogen excretion.
Nitrogen utilization in gestating sows: Impact of dietary fiber, crude protein level, and gestation stage
EU protein production and options to diversify sources
An increase in diversification of production in the EU requires available agricultural land suitable for the needed crops.
333 Emerging Voices - Evaluation of the inclusion of Tenebrio molitor meal in pig’s diet
Doctoral thesis from the University of Milan (Italy), advised by Luciana Rossi.
Amino acids: Fundamentals
Basic principles of amino acids and the concept of ideal protein in swine nutrition.
EU looks into alternative protein sources for food and feed
This study assesses the current state and future prospects of protein production with a focus on conventional and alternative protein sources for food and feed.
European agriculture ministers discussed protein strategy
The Belgian federal and regional agriculture ministers invited their European colleagues to Belgium to discuss food, especially proteins, as a strategic sector for the future of Europe.
