Gut Health Challenges for Swine
The life of a pig is full of challenges. Even before birth resources can be scarce. After that, things don’t get any easier. At weaning and even at the finishing stage, pathogens make life hard for a pig. The overarching challenge for swine producers is how to navigate this plethora of challenges while also keeping the amount of antibiotics used to a minimum.

Aquatic August: the history of aquaculture
At Perstorp Animal Nutrition we are focusing on the field of Aquaculture in the month of August. But what is Aquaculture? “Aquaculture” is defined as the farming and harvesting of aquatic organisms like fish, mollusks, crustaceans and aquatic plants in controlled environments (FAO, 2024).

Weaning Challenges
Weaning is probably the most pivotal moment in a pig’s life where the manager’s decisions can have an enormous effect on the piglet’s wellbeing and performance. Many problems can occur, ranging from depressed feed intake, pathogenic pressure, diarrhea, social stress and many other factors negatively affecting the piglet's health and performance. You can find an overview of articles and other resources below discussing challenges that a piglet can face during weaning.

Feed acidification - by today’s standards
Feed acidification is the process of reducing the pH of feed by using organic acids. This process has proven its efficiency in helping to reduce harmful bacteria and improving feed digestibility for decades. Today’s solutions for feed acidification are more effective, better targeted to specific applications and often non-corrosive. Some even have additional benefits such as allowing you to influence the dietary electrolyte balance. Despite being a producer of formic and propionic acid, we believe the world is best served with these next generation solutions that are safer and more effective.

The love/hate relationship between aquaculture and antibiotics
The threat of antibiotic resistance in aquaculture is becoming more evident every year. Aquaculture – like other animal protein production systems – needs to be wary of antibiotic resistance. However a different set of challenges appear because of the way the feeding takes place and how production systems are set up.

Antibiotic reduction for swine
Antibiotics are undoubtedly one of mankind’s most valuable discovery. They help us - and farm animals - to fight diseases caused by bacterial pathogens. They also improve the growth performance of animals. We depend on them so much that antibiotic resistance is one of this century’s biggest concerns for our species.

ProPhorce™ AC 299
Con el calentamiento global y la intensificación de la producción ganadera, es más importante que nunca gestionar el balance electrolítico de la dieta (BED) de sus animales y controlar las bacterias patógenas, sin comprometer el rendimiento animal ni la eficiencia alimenticia de los animales. ¿Y si pudiese hacer las dos cosas con sólo incluir un producto en su pienso? Puede lograrlo con ProPhorce™ AC 299: un producto a base de formiato de sodio producido por Perstorp.
