Reducing feed expenses while sustaining optimal animal performance is essential for profitability.
In swine production, feed accounts for up to 60-70% of total production costs. It is the primary component of profitability calculation for live animal production. Reducing feed expenses while sustaining optimal animal performance is therefore essential for profitability.
Multiple factors affect profitability, among them nutrients density, raw material quality, ingredient selection and feed formulation. All play key roles in ensuring that pigs receive sufficient nutrients without waste or unnecessary costs.
High-quality, nutritious feed is essential to support growth rates, reproductive performance, and overall health. However, sourcing affordable ingredients that deliver these benefits can be challenging, especially as prices fluctuate due to market demands, climate variability, and transportation issues.
Enhancing feed digestibility is one approach for reducing costs without sacrificing performance. Improved digestibility enables animals to absorb nutrients more efficiently, reducing the amount of feed needed to support growth, health, and productivity.
This approach not only improves feed conversion rates but also allows for greater flexibility in ingredient selection, helping producers manage costs while maximizing the benefits of animal diets.
Others areas help to feed cost savings, such as reviewing feed processing, nutrient requirements or use of alternative raw materials.
