The DanBred Finisher Manual is aimed at productions growing pigs all the way or some of the way from wean to finish. The manual introduces evidence-based recommendations for best practice management and feeding with the aim to market full value DanBred finishers.
The requirements are based on DanBred research and trials focusing on knowledge that will help explore the full genetic potential while securing both economic and sustainable performance.
A systematic approach to feeding and management of pigs will set the stage for realising the genetic potential of the fast-growing DanBred piglets.
Additionally, this will lead to production with high growth rates, optimal feed conversion and excellent meat quality. This will make a positive difference for total economic profit.
Using DanBred’s nutritional requirements and guiding energy levels for finishers will set a prime starting point on the road to release the genetic potential.
Every system and feed form and feeder type must be managed differently and has its pros and cons.
Good production results can be attained with feed of a very simple composition, however, the health of the pigs and especially weaners should always be of the highest consideration, why feed entirely based on grain and soybean meal is not recommended for pigs between 7 and 30 kg.
Using DanBred’s nutritional requirements and guiding energy levels for finishers will set a prime starting point on the road to release the genetic potential.
Grinding is the most common method of feed processing and nearly all feed ingredients will be subjected to some type of particle size reduction before being fed to the pigs.
If a disease is latent among the pigs, the transition may influence the progress why any stress factor should always be at an absolute minimum.
In the spirit of the Danish agricultural collectives, we share this knowledge with everyone based on our conviction that the better we all become, the better the individual becomes. We only ask for your e-mail address, so we can keep you informed of any updates to the content or new DanBred initiatives.
