Each year, we can expect at least one heat wave during the summer. Heat waves can have significant negative effects on livestock performance and economic returns.

For many of us the hot days of summer are a welcomed change from our long Canadian winters, but for our pig barns the warm and humid weather conditions can create the opportunity for performance and profitability losses.

Swine production across Canada has long recognized and relied on the decision-making capabilities of commercial swine models. Trouw Nutrition has developed and refined the Watson swine model over the past 15 years to be an industry leader.

Press Release: Saint-Hyacinthe, February 1st 2022 – Since 2001, Newton®, Trouw Nutrition’s proprietary ration formulation system, stacks up against the new requirements of the 8th edition of ‘Feed Requirements for Dairy Cattle’ (NASEM 2021).

Benchmarking is a continuous process where you measure and compare the performance of your business against others or best class standards to evaluate and discover opportunities for improvement. It is a management tool that helps any business, including pig farming, to optimize their performance.

Trouw Nutrition's LifeStart Swine brand, which is a progressive nutrition and farm management approach for early life in swine, serves as a source for reliable information for producers.

How is nutrition different with a robotic milking system? Part of the grains are fed through the robot. This motivates the cow to go to the robot to get milked. After, we need to balance the diet according to the herd’s needs while considering your farm’s economic goals and performance.

In order to meet the different needs of piglets in nurseries, our Milkiwean feeding programs allow you to deal with enteric problems through the Vital Start program, to maximize growth with Best Start, or optimize costs with Efficient Start.

Society is evolving, and consumer profiles are more varied than ever.
