The One Health approach emphasizes the vital connection between animal health and human health, underscoring that both are part of a broader global concern. Among various health challenges, zoonotic diseases, particularly viral ones require special attention in swine farming due to challenges management and the risk of economic loss.
It is important to emphasize that once a virus enters a swine farm, its presence cannot be eliminated. However, there are effective strategies to minimize its negative impact on animal health and performance, like vaccination and biosecurity.
Despite these measures, viruses remain a challenge to control: they are resistant to decontamination, often go undetected and can spread rapidly. Looking ahead, a more integrated approach is needed in the swine industry, one in which nutrition plays a key role in enhancing animal resilience and reducing the impact of viral threats.
In the swine industry, nutrition plays a key role in enhancing animals’ resilience to diseases, including viral diseases.
A well-balanced diet supports the proper functioning of the immune system, helping pigs better cope with the impact of viruses and achieve faster recovery. This not only reduces the severity of illness but also helps maintain performance and productivity during and after infection.
Implementing targeted nutritional strategies supports the immune system and helps mitigate the impact of viral diseases.
The prerequisite in any strategy is to ensure animals receive a safe and well-balanced diet, this is a must-have, directly tied to immediate health benefits. Naturally, the nutritional needs are adjusted to each specie and physiological stage.
Safe feed can be defined as feed that is free from mycotoxin contamination. Consequently, controlling mycotoxin levels is crucial to mitigate their adverse effects on the immune system.
To support this goal, a solution has been developed by Adisseo to offer maximum protection against broad-spectrum mycotoxin contamination and its potential consequences in pigs, from piglets to sows: Unike Plus®.
Amino acids, vitamins, and essential minerals are critical components of the diet. They are indispensable for the proper functioning of the entire body, especially the immune system. To help meet these essential nutritional needs, Adisseo proposes specific solutions:
These nutrients contribute to the overall functioning of the immune system and help reinforce the animal’s natural defenses.
Viral challenges remain a key concern in swine production.
