Pig Start: Optimal nutrition for piglets
Ensuring a strong start for piglets is crucial to reducing mortality and optimizing growth. Pig Start is designed to give piglets a quick energy boost, support their immune system and increase their ability to absorb colostrum from the sow. Here is a guide on when and how to best use Pig Start in your herd.

- Large litters – When there are many newborn piglets and competition for the sow's milk is high.
- High piglet mortality – Herds struggling with high mortality have experienced improved survival rates with Pig Start.
- Newly established herds – Helps establish a stable start in new herds.
- PRRS-challenged herds – Strengthens weak pigs that may be extra vulnerable to disease.
- Efficient farrowing routine – If you already have a piglet care system in place, Pig Start can further optimize results.
- Low weaning weight – Pig Start can help increase weight at weaning, resulting in stronger and more robust pigs.
