DOI: 10.1080/1745039x.2019.1640023
Abstract: ABSTRACT The aim of the study was to investigate if dietary alpha-ketoglutarate (AKG) supplementation may improve the performance of lactating sows and their suckling piglets. After farrowing, 24 lactating sows (Large White × Landrace) with… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/jas/skaa054.165
Abstract: The objective was to determine phosphorus (P) requirement of lactating sows using 24-hour urinary P excretion as the response criteria. The underlying assumption was that urinary P remains low and constant until the requirements are… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/jas/skac222
Abstract: Abstract Precision feeding (PF) aims to provide the right amount of nutrients at the right time for each animal. Lactating sows generally receive the same diet, which either results in insufficient supply and body reserve… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/jas/skad129
Abstract: An accurate understanding of heat stress (HS) temperatures and phenotypes that indicate HS tolerance is necessary to improve swine HS resilience. Therefore, the study objectives were 1) to identify phenotypes indicative of HS tolerance, and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/jas/skz122.086
Abstract: We hypothesized that lactating sows fed a reduced CP (RCP) diet with supplemental AA to improve AA balance produce less metabolic heat (HP) compared with feeding a conventional diet (control). The objective was to measure… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/jas/skz122.334
Abstract: Determining total heat production (THP) in individual sows and litters can be difficult and often requires the use of multiple animals to generate data on a per room basis. These systems may be costly to… read more here.
