Feeding

1 FE = 1 FU (feed unit)
 New system from 2006:
1 Feso = 1 Feed unit for sows (=
7.700 kj)
1 Fesv = 1 Feed unit for all
other pigs ( = 7.380 kj)
 We have standards for
– Amino acid
– Mineral
– Vitamins
The standards are based on trials

Raw material:Wheat, Barley and
Soya meal

sows
– 1550 FU per year
 50 % in the lactating
 1 kg gain needs 3,2 FU
 If temperature fall 5º the sow nedds 0,25 FU
ekstra per day
 1500

Pregnant sow
1 kg mix = 0,9 – 1,05
FU
 Regulation

– Feeling of satiety
– High fibre content

Feed bye the eye
– The sow need the right
condition
7
Lactating sow
1 kg mix = 1,06 – 1,1
FU
 High milk production
 No weight loos
 Feed the piglets
through the sow


Feeding
Over 28 days she needs >180 FE.
Raise feed slowly over the first 10 days to 7-9 FE/day

Feeding young sows (polte)
 From
30 to 60 kgs:
 Mixture for growers are good enough
 Feed ad lib (but remember the condition and the
legs)
 From 60 kgs to 90 kg:
 Mixture for lactating sows
 Max. 2,5 Fu/day
 Above 90 kgs:
 By condition (2-3 FU/day)
 The last two weeks before mating 3 – 4
FU/day (flushing)
10
Weaners

6-9 kg: 1 kg mix = 1,2
– 1,3 FU
 9-30 kg: 1 kg mix =
1,15 FU
 46 FU per pig (7-30
kg)

Weaners
Feeding after weaning
Do not restrict feed in the first 3 days.(If no
problems with diarrhoea)
After day 4 you can feed restricted if
needed:
Everybody eats at the same time (min. 12
cm/pig at the trough)
Give feed 2-4 times pr. day
The feed must be eatet in 5-30 min.
(through must be clean)
Gruel feed in a long trough
The smallest 10% - 20% of the pigs can be
given at better feed.
In the first week after weaning feed intake is a very important factor in
reducing diarré.
After 10-12 days all pigs are given feed ad. libitum

– Reduce fat
– Reduce feed cost
• 1 kg meat 1,25 FE

Example
70 kg gain * 0,1 FU/kg = 7 FU/pig
7 FU/pig * 1,40 dkk = 9,8 dkk/pig*10.000
pigs/year = 98.000 dkk/year
Appr. = 13000 euro
