Phytase Helps Lower Phosphorus in Swine Manure | Dietary Adjustments Lower Phosphorusus in manure
Dried distiller's grains with solubles (DDGS) and phytase help lower phosphorus in manure, eliminate need for supplemental phosphorus. Last year, when monocalcium phosphate (monocal) and dicalcium phosphate (dical) were fetching $1,000/ton, University of Illinois (UI) swine nutritionist Hans Stein received several calls from pork producers and feed company nutritionists seeking advice on lowering
Nitrogen Stabilization Product Launched
Product protects at the corn root zone to boost yields. Dow AgroSciences announces that federal registration has been approved for INSTINCT nitrogen (N) stabilizer for use with liquid manure. INSTINCT protects nitrogen from liquid manure applications at the corn root zone, optimizing the yield potential of corn. INSTINCT is proven technology in an innovative, encapsulated formulation from Dow AgroSciences,
Sow, Pig Dietrary Adjustments Can Lower Costs | Tailor Feeding To Fit Your Pigs, Budget
Focus on feeding sows more efficiently and not overfeeding certain diets and special ingredients. There are two critical points to address when trying to shave feeding costs in the breeding herd, according to John Patience, Extension swine nutritionist at Iowa State University. First, nutritional changes in one area of the operation can have major consequences further downstream. If I make a mistake
Swine Manure-to-Energy is Feasible | Manure-to-Energy NOT Far-Fetched
The day that hog manure can be transformed into petroleum will happen when pigs fly. The pig-flying reference is commonly used as a sarcastic quip to emphasize the sheer foolishness of an idea or plan. But don't tell that to a small group of chemical and mechanical engineers engaged in a pilot project to convert swine manure to petroleum-based products. At the root of the project is an engineering

Distillers Grains Offer Pig Feeding Options | Digging Deep to Capitalize on DDGS
ver the course of three different research trials, more than 2,000 pigs were fed dried distiller's grains with solubles (DDGS) diets, which varied in a host of different ways. DDGS + Enzymes in Nursery Diets Researchers determined that adding commercial enzymes to typical corn-soybean meal-based diets had no effect on nursery pigs' average daily gain (ADG), average daily feed intake (ADFI) or feed/gain

Weigh pros and cons before adding feed by-products to swine rations | Use of Feed By-Products in Swine Diets requires Scrutiny
Producers often get excited when they locate a source of feed alternatives at a reasonable price. But Joel DeRouchey says there's a lot to be considered before locking in a load. Many producers are scouring sources to save on high-priced corn and soybean meal. However, the first step should be to check the quality consistency of the shipment, then whether future shipments will likely be uniform in

Mycotoxin Testing Can Be Perplexing
The 2008 corn harvest was complicated by a wet growing season and wet harvest. Some corn was not adequately dried for long-term storage because of the cost of fuel to dry the corn
Processing Options Trim Feed Budgets | Optimizing Feed Manufacturing, Transport Options
Rising ingredient, energy (petroleum) and transportation costs are changing feed manufacturing practices across the U.S. pork industry. Feedmill and production unit managers are being challenged to evaluate the value of feed ingredients, feed form (mash, pellet, liquid) and particle size and cost of feed delivery. Long-term goals should focus on ingredient purchasing and logistics (delivery and storage)
Engineering Group Plans To Clarify DDGS Standards
The American Society of Agricultural and Biological Engineers (ASABE) is clarifying the purpose of a recently announced project to develop a standard on distillers dried grains with solubles (DDGS).
Feed Focus is a Balancing Act | Cutting corn-soy diets and replacing with alternative ingredients and feeder management are ways that Dykhuis Farms reduces feed costs
Cutting corn-soy diets and replacing with alternative ingredients and feeder management are ways that Dykhuis Farms reduces feed costs. With 195,000 pigs on feed, and the majority of them being fed out in wean-to-finish barns, it's no wonder Dykhuis Farms' Brandon Hill is a stickler for details when it comes to swine nutrition. Hill is finishing production manager for this Holland, MI-based hog operation,
