*PIGLET MORTALITY - LEAFLET on DIGESTIBLE & METABOLISABLE ENERGY for Pigs: BPEX

*FREE INFORMATION LEAFLET on WATER REQUIREMENTS & DRINKERS RATIOS for Pigs: BPEX (.PDF 654Kb)
Swine need to drink adequate supply of water to meet essential body functions such as temperature regulation, absorption of nutrients, waste excretion and tissue growth. 80% of a newborn piglet consists of water and 55% of a finisher. Extreme water deprivation can be fatal, minor dehydration can result in reduced feed intake, lower daily gain, poorer feed conversion, reduced milk production and lower weaning weights. When performance problems are investigated, feed is often carefully analysed while critical problems with drinking water supplies may be missed.
