Nutrition of Sows and Boars

In addition to basic scientific knowledge, practical guidelines & indices of reproduction are given, commensurate with good performance, health & welfare. The central role of nutrition in the reproduction of farm animals has long been recognised. In the last two decades there have been considerable advances in our knowledge of sow and boar nutrition which has allowed the development of effective feeding strategies. Such progress will continue in order to meet the demands of ever-increasing product targets.
