The use of animal plasma in early wean pig starters in 1990 resulted in significant improvements in performance. In early 2014, a new ingredient called betaGRO® (a concentrated source of immunoglobulins from animal plasma) became incorporated into pig starters as ...

HydraVantage is a highly refined, flavored, soluble nutritional premix that can help the gut and immune system of pigs, especially during times of stress. HydraVantage contains fresh water humic acid (a source of nutrient-rich carbon) that can help support the ...

INTRODUCTION: Through Kent research in 2014, we determined that a level of “12 lb/ton” of synthetic amino acids [lysine (Lys), threonine (Thr), methionine (Met), tryptophan (Trp)] performed similar to our standard “8 lb/ton” of synthetic amino acids (lysine, threonine, methionine). ...

With the ever-fluctuating costs of soybean meal and amino acids, it is very important to use diets like the example attached to determine which diets to use. In research completed at the KNG Product Development Center, we showed that these ...

Producing lean pork requires the right balance of amino acids in the diet. In grow-finish diets, lysine (Lys) is the first-limiting or essential amino acid (standard) that is required, followed by threonine, methionine and tryptophan (Trp) as other key essential ...
