Introduction
The overall goals for sow productivity are a program that 1) maximizes number of pigs per litter; 2) optimizes pig birth weight; 3) maximizes litters per year; 4) maximizes...
Introduction
Food loss and waste (FLW) represent one of the most significant failures of our global food system. It is estimated that 33 to 40 % of global food production is lost or wasted along the entire supply chain, from...
There are several factors related to dietary Ca that may influence digestibility of amino acids (AA). By chelating to dietary phytate, dietary Ca can form non-digestible Ca-phytate complexes, and this may result in reductions of P and AA digestibility....
Abstract
Transboundary movement of animal feed and feed ingredients has been identified as a route for pathogen incursions. While imports of animals and animal-derived products are highly regulated for the purpose of infectious disease prevention, there has been less consideration...
In this open-access article from the MycoLab, Dr. Maria Pieters’ team explores the influence of pigs’ gut microbiome in modulating their susceptibility to Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae.
In a commercial sow farm, thirty-two piglets from six litters, naive against PRRS and M....
With more ethanol in production and a greater ability to upcycle co-products into animal feed ingredients, companies are creating custom products and partnering with University of Illinois researchers to test for quality and digestibility.
In a recent study published in...
While researchers are well versed in the cardiovascular risks associated with a bad diet, a lack of exercise, and smoking, they’re still learning about another possible risk factor that could lead to poor cardiac health: what you
consume in the first few weeks of your life. Dr....

Introduction
Evaporative cooling systems are used to reduce the indoor air temperature within animal housing during periods of warm weather.
An evaporative cooling system works by pumping water from a reservoir tank to a feed pipe situated...
