Growth Hurdles In Sows and weaning pigs : Solutions for success
The global livestock industry, particularly in swine production, faces significant challenges due to the growing restrictions and bans on antibiotic growth promoters (AGPs). Antibiotics, typically administered at sub-therapeutic doses, are included in pig feed and water to help control gut pathogens, improve digestion, and promote healthy growth. This change stems from concerns about antibiotic resistance, consumer demand for antibiotic-free products, and stricter regulations. As a result, maintaining optimal growth and health in sows and weaning pigs has become increasingly difficult, particularly during critical periods such as gestation, lactation, and post-weaning.
In many countries, such as the United States, antibiotics have been used widely in pig farming. However, the European Union has been more proactive in regulating the use of AGPs, banning their use as growth promoters since 2006 due to concerns over antibiotic resistance. Other countries like China and Brazil continue to use AGPs more widely, though there is increasing pressure for change.
Key Challenges in Sows:
1.
Nutrient Absorption:
Antibiotics traditionally supported gut health, enhancing nutrient absorption
and reducing inflammation. Without AGPs, sows may face issues with digestion
and feed efficiency.
2.
Immune Stress: Sows
are more susceptible to infections during gestation and lactation, which can
reduce reproductive efficiency.
3.
Litter Performance: A
decline in sow health negatively impacts milk production and litter quality,
leading to weaker piglets at birth.
Key Challenges in Weaning Pigs:
1.
Post-Weaning Stress: The
transition from milk to solid feed, coupled with environmental changes, weakens
the piglets’ immune systems, increasing susceptibility to diseases.
2.
Gut Microbiota Imbalance:
Antibiotics controlled harmful bacteria in the gut. Without them, pigs are more
prone to gastrointestinal disorders, such as diarrhea.
3.
Reduced Feed Conversion Efficiency: AGPs
enhanced gut health and metabolism, ensuring better growth rates. The absence
of these leads to slower growth and reduced productivity.
At
Vansh Specialities,
we

Engineered as a potent replacement for antibiotic growth promoters (AGPs), it offers a sustainable, residue free solution to the challenges of modern animal production.
By promoting a balanced gut microbiota and reducing pathogenic challenges, ReWallVe supports digestive health and immune function, thereby minimizing growth setbacks and enhancing overall productivity. Its comprehensive formulation of bioactive compounds supports robust skeletal development and muscular growth, translating to healthier, more resilient animals- Naturally, Sustainably and Effectively.
Stress and Behavioural Impact
Adaptogenic components
components in ReWallVe alleviate stress-related depressive symptoms by modulating stress hormones and promoting physiological homeostasis.
Immune Modulation
The antioxidant properties of ReWallVe combat oxidative stress and enhance immune cell activity. This supports an overall stronger immune response and reduces susceptibility to diseases.
Appetite Stimulation and Palatability Enhancement
ReWallve contains natural flavouring compounds like alkaloids, also activate olfactory and gustatory receptors, enhancing feed palatability and stimulating appetite. This leads to increased feed intake and improved energy availability for metabolic functions.
Reproductive Efficiency
ReWallVe improves reproductive outcomes by optimizing energy partitioning and supporting hormonal balance, reducing the risk of stillbirths and improving fertility rates.
Gastrointestinal Function
ReWallVe contains prebiotics promotes gastric motility and regulates gastric emptying by modulating gastrointestinal hormones. This helps to manage digestive disorders and maintain a balanced gut environment.
Nutrient and Energy Digestibility
The inclusion of specific enzymes and organic acids in ReWallVe improves the breakdown of complex nutrients, facilitating their efficient digestion and absorption in the gastrointestinal tract.
