Weaning stress and post weaning performance

Weaning in pigs is a stressful event, triggering social, physiological, and immune challenges that impact health, feed intake, and growth. Despite advancements in management, it remains one of the most stressful periods in a pig’s life, leading to intestinal and immune dysfunctions with short- and long-term effects on performance.

Weaning stress affects pig health, feed intake, and growth.
Stress from weaning disrupts gut development and nutrient absorption.

In nature, weaning in pigs is a gradual process that occurs at about 3 months of age and represent the shift from the piglet’s reliance on sow’s milk to other feed sources.

In modern production systems, and despite advancements in livestock management and biosecurity, weaning is still one of the most stressful events in the pig’s life. They face social and physiological changes while they are neither physiologically nor immunologically mature.

All these factors contribute to intestinal and immune system dysfunctions that may have both short and long-term effects on reduced pig health, feed intake, and growth.

Weaning in pigs introduces several stressors: social stress from mixing litters, environmental stress from changes in surroundings, and feed transition, from liquid to solid and milk protein to plant-based protein.

These stressors primarily cause depressed feed intake, leading to reduced nutrient absorption and limit gut development. The immaturity of the intestines, along with dietary changes, results in insufficient enzyme secretion and altered enzyme activity, reducing digestive capacity of the animal and energy absorption. Besides, the combined stresses disrupt intestinal barrier integrity, increasing the risk of diarrhea. Finally, oxidative stress from these challenges triggers inflammation, which, if uncontrolled, can compromise immune responses.

Managing these stresses is crucial for improving piglet performance and future development.

Feed cost and profitability

Reducing feed expenses while sustaining optimal animal performance is essential for profitability.

Feed costs account for 60-70% of production expenses.
Improved digestibility boosts nutrient absorption and feed efficiency.

Reproductive performance management

Adisseo have focused on improving the reproductive performance of sows by delivering targeted solutions. These solutions address specific challenges encountered during gestation and lactation :

Sow reproductive performance is impacted by factors such as stress and environment.
Nutritional solutions may benefit reproductive performance and farm efficiency.

Improving overall feed digestibility

Improving feed digestibility is essential for swine producers because it enhances animal performance and overall health.

Better feed digestibility boosts swine growth, health, and feed efficiency.
Antinutritional factors reduce nutrient absorption and digestibility.

Mitigating heat stress in swine production

As global warming rises, temperature variations are becoming more intense and frequent, impacting animal health and productivity.

Heat stress reduces pig feed intake, impacting growth, immunity, and overall performance.
Managing heat stress is crucial to prevent intestinal permeability, oxidative stress, and related health issues.

Enhancing swine resilience against diseases

Even with advancements in biosecurity and production management, sanitary pressures continue to pose a major challenge in swine production. Nutritional solutions play a crucial role in enhancing resilience by supporting immune function and promoting rapid recovery from stress.

Balancing performance and health remain challenging due to high sanitary pressure, requiring resilient pigs.
Nutrition contributes to strengthen immunity, helping pigs recover quickly from stress.
