- W7394418 abstract "Feeding and nutritional strategies for weaned pigs, regardless of age, should be thoroughly reviewed on a regular basis to ensure success of your nursery nutrition program. Properly designed nutritional programs and feed budgets cannot, by themselves, ensure a successful nursery program. We are beginning to understand that it is not only an issue of what to feed the young pig, but equally important is how they are fed and managed. A successful nursery feeding program contains several components, but the most important are: A) Start with as heavy and as old a pig as feasible; B) Switch from complex to simple diets as quickly as possible; and C) Provide the proper management to start pigs promptly on feed and water and continually adjust feeders to optimize feed efficiency. STRATEGIES FOR FEEDING WEANED PIGS Start with as Heavy and as Old as Possible Pig Recent Kansas State University research (Main et al., 2004; 2005) has shown that increasing weaning age through 21 days linearly increases growth rate and reduces mortality from weaning to market. In these studies, wean-to-finish growth performance and productivity (as measured by ADG, mortality, off-test weight per day of age, and weight sold per pig weaned) improved as weaning age increased from 12 to 21 days of age (Table 1). Linear improvements in growth and mortality rate largely occurred in the initial 42 d post-weaning period, with some ongoing growth improvements in finishing performance. Financial performance improved linearly as weaning age increased up to 21.5 days. Data were then modeled to determine the linear rates of improvement observed as weaning age increased from 15 to 21.5 days (Table 2). Each day increase in weaning age increased initial weight (taken prior to weaning) 256 ± 4 g and weight sold to slaughter 1.80 ± 0.15 kg per pig weaned. In the financial analysis, income over cost increased $0.94 ± 0.07 per wean age day in the limited finishing space scenario and $0.53 ± 0.06 per wean age day in the non-limited space scenario. These studies suggest increasing weaning age up to 21.5 days can be an effective production strategy to improve wean-to-finish growth performance in a multi-site production system." @default.
