The products are focused on specific events in the livestock production cycle. Generating improvements in the production parameters at these specific events will have a significant beneficial effect on the production parameters of the whole production cycle.
In pig production these significant events are farrowing, weaning, insemination and times of stress such as changes in feed or housing. Targeting these specific events will have a major impact on the overall profitability of a pig production system.
Products to supplement the essential fatty acids in sow and boars feed influence the number of piglets born and weaned, the size and viability of the piglets at birth and at weaning. The extension of the productive life of both sows and boars impacts profitability and return on investment.
Products targeted at these specific events represent a relatively small investment when measured against the potential profit that can be gained throughout the entire production cycle.
