Good advice on how to use Pig Start for optimal piglet survival

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.

When should I use Pig Start?
Pig Start application

Pig Start has been shown to give particularly good results in the following situations:

  • 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.
