Modelling nutrient requirements for pigs to optimize feed efficiency Dr Michael Dingkuhn

Modelling nutrient requirements for pigs to optimize feed efficiency Dr Michael DingkuhnImprovement of feed efficiency is crucial if pig production is to meet the challenge of sustainability in terms of production costs and environmental impact. This implies to precisely know the nutrient requirements of sows and growing pigs to develop adapted feeding strategies and thus optimize performance. This chapter describes existing modelling approaches developed to predict the nutrient requirement of a single individual animal (growing pig or
