Winning the Weaning Race: Go for Gold
Weaning marks an important and often stressful phase in a piglet's development. The transition from a milk-based diet to solid feed poses significant challenges to the piglet’s digestive system, which has been accustomed to easily digestible nutrients. The sudden change in diet composition, coupled with the separation from the sow, induces major physiological adjustments in the gut independently. These changes include for example the restructuring of the intestinal lining, shifts in gut microbiota, and alterations in barrier functions and permeability, inflammation and more (see figure 1). During this phase, piglets often experience a reduction in feed intake as they adapt to the new diet, which can result in malnutrition and slower growth. The immature gut, still developing its capacity to digest solid feed efficiently, becomes more vulnerable to pathogens. This can lead to diarrhea, which is one of the most common health issues during this stage and a major cause of mortality in piglets. The disruption in gut health also weakens the piglet’s immune system, making it more susceptible to infections and further compromising growth and survival.
