    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. Dritz, R.D. Goodband and J.L. Nelssen, Kansas State University. US.

    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.

    Improving Pig Feed Formulation with NIR Technology

    Disease Husbandry Research and innovation

    clock icon 3 minute read
    The advent of new technologies has provided us with the opportunity to formulate feeds based on better information, and thus to enhance their value. At a time when feed production makes up 70% of variable animal production costs, such developments have real potential to optimise rations – and feed efficiency. Recent advances in Near Infrared Reflectance (NIR) equipment, for example, allow us to understand the variation both within and between raw materials more accurately, writes Dr Hadden Graham, Global Technical Director, AB Vista.
