Gestation, farrowing and lactation are important stages of sow feeding. Product selection should reflect the current stage and the composition of the base ration.
Feeding around birth
The period around birth marks a change in feeding stage. For each product, check whether use is intended before or after birth and consider the rest of the ration when selecting it.
Find the right product
Check the intended species, feeding instructions and the other ingredients in the ration. Consult the individual product pages for instructions on use. The Zehentmayer team can help with questions about product selection.
