Starting an optimal instestine functionning with pre-weaning feeding strategies, a helper for the transition to the weaning phase

To start post weaning phase, piglets need to be educated to eat feed during pre-weaning. Paolo Trevisi will present strategies to succed.

His key messages are followed by the slides of his presentation.

The challenge with piglets - getting them to eat

In swine industry, the focus is on growing-finishing pigs for the meat production but two phases are very important to consider: the sow from pregnancy to lactation and the piglets which will have to face a drastic change of feed presentation from milk to solid feed and like kids the mixing with others and the separation from the mother.

The first objective is to lead the piglet to eat and to get them interested in the feed presented, Bruno Silva is presenting how sensory imprinting work.

His key messages is followed by the slides of his presentation.

Fibre fermentation and the possible role of butyrate in pig health

Fri, 08 Nov 2019 00:00:00 GMT

Speaker: Dr Helle Nygaard LAERKE (Aarhus Univ, Denmark)

Presentation:
Butyrate, either endogenous (produced by microbiota) or exogenous (supplied by the feed) is a key nutrient for gut metabolism: reducing intestinal inflammation, improving absorptive capacity, strengthening gut barrier resulting in better performance and better meat quality.

Poultry & Swine Conferences 2019

Swine: Managing Sows
Managing sows starts with improving their feed intake, particularly in lactation. Manipulating the feed composition to stimulate endogenous butyrate production, to improve quantity and quality of colostrum and milk will help to support prolificity and piglet performance.

Questions & Answers Session with Prof. Hervé Blottière

Speaker: Prof Hervé BLOTTIERE, MICALIS & INRA, Paris, France

Produced by the endogenous bacteria or supplemented through the diet, butyrate exhibits lots of positive effects on intestinal integrity, gut immune function, regulation of gut-brain axis up to acting on pathogens such as Salmonella.

During this Advancia Academy 2019, Worldwide experts answered questions on butyrate from endogenous microbiota or dietary supplementation to strengthen health of the animals.

Mon, 11 Jun 2018 00:00:00 GMT

Speaker: Prof Charlotte LAURIDSEN

An optimized antioxidant balance, particularly vitamin E and selenium, is important to support immune system.

PSA Oxidative Stress session 2017

During the 2017 Poultry Science Association annual meeting, five speakers addressed the issue from different viewpoints as part of the Oxidative Stress Symposium.

Tue, 27 Mar 2018 00:00:00 GMT

Speakers: Dr Mickaël Briens and Dr Dolores I. Batonon-Alavo, ADISSEO, France

Sulfur amino acids and selenium appeared complementary, through their related metabolic pathways, to help piglets and sows to cope with challenges.

Speaker: Dr. Elodie Merlot, INRA, France

Robust weaned piglets show optimal growth without digestive or health issue in various environments. Could robustness be early predicted through biological indicators?
