    Deoxynivalenol (DON), also known as vomitoxin, is a mycotoxin commonly found in wheat, corn, and other cereal grains. During wet, cool periods of the growing season, Fusarium graminearum forms a head blight, producing DON as a secondary metabo­lite, write S.Q. Fowler, H.L. Frobose, M.D. Tokach, J.M. DeRouchey, S.S.

    Potassium diformate, a double-salt of formic acid, has been shown in numerous trials to improve health and performance in piglets, growing-finishing pigs and sows. Thus, potassium diformate (KDF) has been approved in the European Union as the first non-antibiotic growth promoter for use in swine, writes Christian Lückstädt , ADDCON.

    Eight Dimensions of Pig Feed Intake

    Disease Husbandry Research and innovation
    calendar icon 28 October 2016
    clock icon 5 minute read
    Most articles on feed intake in wean-to-finish (W2F) analyze the effects of individual factors, such as water availability, feeder space, energy diet or stocking density on average daily gain (ADG) and feed conversion (FCR). However, it is important that producers understand how different factors that affect feed intake interact with each other and how they can be handled at the "slat" level with a goal of improving pig performance. The objective of this article is to review eight factors that impact feed intake in W2F operations and how these can be managed in the barn.
