WEBINAR: MAKE A BETTER PROFIT ON YOUR SOW FARM
Want to know how to earn more money on your sows? Join the gut health webinar, to learn more on how sow feed can improve your overall result
HOW ZINC AFFECTS THE PIGLET GUT
What happens when you use high doses of Zinc Oxide (ZnO) in the weaning feed for piglets? Many farmers would answer “Less diarrhoea”, which is correct, but few know that it damages the immune system and causes inflammation. Through a microscope, you will see why.
RESPONSIBLE SOY IS GREAT – LOCAL PROTEIN IS EVEN BETTER
Ever wondered why our name is European Protein? It’s because we want to deliver feed made from locally available protein sources. In the US and Ukraine, the local protein is soy, but in other countries, soy could partly be replaced by local protein sources. And even at a very competitive cost.
EUROPEAN PROTEIN APPOINTS NEW CHAIRMAN
European Protein appoints new chairman to boost growth and export sales.
HOW TO INCREASE YOUR SOWS MILK YIELD
EP199 helps to increase milk production in your sow herd, enabling the sow to wean more piglets per weaning. Read more about how the fermented protein contributes to an increase in milk production.
How a Dutch pig producer increased earnings by 114 EUR per sow
Read about how Wilfred Bankers increased earning by 114 EUR per sow per year with EP199 for his sows and EP200 for his piglets.
More weaned pigs with help from EP199
In July 2019, Michael Rasmussen tried EP199 for his gestated sows and young females to improve appetite and consequently milk yield and the number of weaned sows. The last six months, the number of weaned piglets have improved considerably due to management and use of EP199.
MORE UNIFORM AND VITAL SUCKLINGS
EP199 helps the sow produce more uniform and vital suckling piglets. Pig producers experience that both the tiny and very large piglets are reduced, evening out the weight of the litter. Read more about how EP199 improves the quality of the litter.
Three pigs more with new protein for the sow herd
In October 2019, Dortheasminde chose to feed EP199 for the sows to improve their productivity. At only 23,5 EUR a sow, he managed to wean three piglets more, increase weaning per litter by 0.7 piglets and add an extra 700 grams of weight at weaning.
