Hello,
- Norel introduces Proporc, a new probiotic for piglet based in Bacillus licheniformis. Early weaning (three weeks of age) is a common practice for the swine industry, especially in intensive production systems. This early weaning results in several changes for the piglet such as separation from the mother, new housing, grouping with other animals and new feeds, normally solid, making the weaning period a stressing one for the piglet. Proporc, the biological additive developed by NOREL S.A., is based on spores of Bacillus licheniformis and has demonstrated its benefits by improving performance parameters in this stressful period.

- Schothorst Feed Research (SFR) and Topigs join forces in new research facilities for pigs and sows. The new facilities will enable this independent research organisation to expand their feed research on the effect of technical performances. The new facility marks the last stage of a €9 million investment will house 350 sows and 3000 growing/finishing pigs and enables both TOPIGS and SFR to perform experiments on a practical scale. Furthermore, 40 Insentec feeder stations are installed that enable measuring individual performance and feed intake of 480 animals. More information visit SFR annd Topigs.
