Durante AMVEC 2024, el Dr. Francisco Domingues discutió la transmisión de virus porcinos endémicos y las opciones para controlarlos de manera efectiva. El alimento es un componente crucial de la producción porcina, proporcionando nutrientes esenciales para el crecimiento y desarrollo. Sin embargo, la presencia de patógenos y virus en el alimento representa riesgos significativos para la salud y productividad de los cerdos.

Feed biosecurity has never been more accessible. The world's leading food producers know that comprehensive biosecurity programs are not a 'nice to have' for feed mill managers — it's a must. Compliance, efficiency, cost saving and reputation *all* depend on a high-functioning biosecurity plan. The Feed Mill Biosecurity Audit app allows users to: ✔️ Pinpoint problem areas ✔️ Identify good manufacturing practices ✔️ Comply with regulatory biosecurity measures ✔️ Establish baseline biosecurity standards Download it for free in Apple iOs & Google Play stores using the link below. https://hubs.ly/Q02HNDWW0

Research shows that sows exposed to PEDv after 90 days of pregnancy or during lactation had 4–9 fewer pigs weaned and a 36%–77% greater pre-weaning mortality. Feed is a fomite for swine viruses, and studies have shown that specific ingredient matrices can enhance virus survival. Preventing virus transmission through contaminated feed is achievable with proper protocols in place. In conjunction with PIPESTONE, a trial was done to evaluate the effect of clean feed on preventing and controlling PEDv, PRRSV and SVA. Get the full study below. https://hubs.ly/Q02HCmhC0

Yesterday during the Poultry Science Association Annual Meeting, we discussed the benefits of high-quality pellets including: ✓ reduced waste ✓ less segregation in feed ✓ improved feed conversion ✓ improved overall bird health Good pellet quality is a bit like Goldilocks and the three bears—not be too soft, not too hard, but just right. Pellets too soft will result in crumbling and feed fines. Alternatively, pellets too hard will break and create fines.   In a recent study, an improvement of 20% pellets in the feeder led to a 3-point increase in FCR leading to a healthier, more productive flock. Additionally, a study conducted by Courtney Poholsky evidenced that improving pellet quality can reduce amino acid and phytase activity variability throughout broiler houses. Maintain high-quality pellets without compromising throughput goals. Access the guide below. https://hubs.ly/Q02H7Dfy0

Feed mills play a crucial role in agriculture and animal husbandry by producing high-quality animal feed to meet the nutritional requirements of livestock. It's never been just about making enough, though. Feed mills turn raw materials into animal welfare. They turn processes into profitability. They turn feed quality into food safety. They turn efficiency into innovation. They turn one-light towns into global growth. Animal agriculture continues to evolve and address emerging challenges. We're proud to partner with the world's feed producers to ensure a safer, more sustainable food chain.

Pellets with high durability exhibit greater resistance to mechanical stress and environmental factors, ensuring consistent performance and nutrient delivery to animals. Optimizing performance is essential for the long-term success of poultry and swine operations. For example, Glover et al. (2015) observed a 3-point decrease in feed conversion when increasing pellet content in the feed pan from 50% to 70%. Through sustainable pellet production practices and a focus on energy efficiency, producers can: ✓ enhance feed quality ✓ improve animal performance ✓ and support feed producer efficiency and profitability Attending the Poultry Science Association Annual Meeting this week?

PH plays a significant role in fermentation, influencing enzyme activity and microbial growth. OptimOH reduces the use of corrosive chemicals within the fermentation process by facilitating necessary pH changes and preventing biofilm formation. Effectively reducing bacteria preserves essential sugars for complete fermentation and lowers levels of organic acids, which, if unchecked, could stress yeast and hinder fermentation. Ethanol producers use OptimOH to: ▪️ aid in necessary pH reductions ▪️ eliminate bacteria, supporting healthy fermentation ▪️ facilitate the re-use of process water, mash and yeast innoculum

#CIPORC starts tomorrow. We're excited to join our friends in Lima, Peru to explore sustainable growth and development of the pig industry. Don't miss our very own, Dr. Francisco Domingues as he takes the keynote stage to discuss the transmission and control of porcine pathogens through balanced feed tomorrow (7/10) from 11:00-11:45. Afterward, join him and the Quimtia team at booth PT3 to discuss the impact of clean feed on your herd.

An Anitox Bird Performance Program saw gains/year improve by €829k for a top 10 European broiler producer. The program optimized the microbial quality of the feed, controlling pathogen load and variation of rations from finished feed to point of consumption which led to: ▪️ An ROI ratio of 2.93:1 ▪️ Increased broiler live weight ▪️ Improved FCR Access the full trial performance below. https://hubs.ly/Q02FHqtN0
