WHATEVER YOUR SYSTEM, WE CAN FORMULATE YOUR DIET.

Every herd is different, which means every herd’s diet should be different. By customising your herd’s diet to best suit both their needs and yours, you can utilise your feed more efficiently and enjoy healthier animals at a reduced cost. Our team of nutritionists are experts in diet formulation and can work with you to select the right ingredients, making the most of your homegrown forages to create a diet to suit your system.

FORMULATE WITH INTOUCH

With the help of our InTouch centre, you will have access to live nutrition support, and your advisor can formulate rations that are both chemically and physically balanced for your animals. These new rations can then be automatically transferred directly to your mixer wagon, meaning that no matter who is loading the machine, they always have the most up-to-date rations to feed.

• Diet balancing and raw material selection
• Reducing purchased feed
• Managing the quality of your diet
• Greater self-sufficiency

Diets:

• 70/30 diet
• Pasture diet
• High-grass diet
• High-fibre diet
• Dry feed diet
• Byproducts diet

BECOME MORE SELF-SUFFICIENT AND GET MORE FROM YOUR HOMEGROWN FORAGES

Making up 70 percent of your herd’s diet, forage is the most important component because of its impact on dry matter and nutrient consumption. The form and quality of forage, in terms of content and digestibility, are two of the main factors influencing milk production in dairy cows as well as body condition in beef and dairy cattle.

Our forage management system aims to support you through the entire growth cycle. Using fewer inputs in fields, we can help you improve crop quality and increase yield by 10 percent —from the same amount of land! For the animal, this results in more energy and protein, and therefore more milk and more beef.

A recent foreign animal disease (FAD) publication by the National Pork Board reported that African swine fever (ASF) continues to spread through parts of Asia and Europe, increasingly disrupting the world’s pork production. China has garnered much attention due to its position as the top global producer of pork. The World Organization for Animal Health (OIE) stated that nearly all of China’s provincial-level administrative units have reported at least one ASF break, which means that all but the far west of China — including Hong Kong and Macau — has now been exposed to ASF on some level. The presence of the ASF virus has also been confirmed in Vietnam. Adding to those concerns is the fact that Japan is battling classical swine fever (CSF), another reportable FAD.

The threat of a FAD in the United States has heightened the need for increased protection for the swine industry at U.S. borders. It has also provoked further discussions on biosecurity and the on-farm steps that must be taken to reduce the risk of disease.

On-farm biosecurity

At a recent swine production meeting, I discussed on-farm biosecurity and advised taking a strategic approach to prevent both the introduction of new biological agents onto your farm and the uncontrolled movement of pathogens around your farm.

Below are critical control points to include in the evaluation of a biosecurity program:

• Animal entry
  • When are replacement animals brought in?
  • Are transport trailers being washed and disinfected?
  • Are feral swine a concern?
• Personnel entry
  • Shower-in/shower-out facilities
  • Obeying the lines of separation between clean and dirty zones
• Product and equipment entry
  • How are deliveries to the farm handled?
  • Are special precautions taken when outside services (e.g., electricians) are used?
• Pest control
  • Keep premises clean and picked up
  • Regularly check and refill bait stations
• Mortality management
  • Ensure that mortalities are regularly picked up
• Feed biosecurity
  • Stage deliveries to clean sites first
  • Disinfect truck wheels and undercarriages, as well as driver equipment
  • Utilize feed intervention technologies to support feed integrity and feed hygiene. Products such as Guardian have been shown to be effective in optimizing feed safety.
• Outside traffic
  • Limit traffic on your farm
  • Plan an offsite delivery area, if possible
• Aerosol transmission
  • Isolate infected animals
  • Wear personal protective equipment

Secure Pork Supply (SPS) plan

A Secure Pork Supply (SPS) plan is being developed through the National Pork Board and the USDA to enhance communication and coordination, accelerate a successful FAD response and support continuity of operations for pork producers. Having an SPS plan in place before the potential outbreak of a FAD in the U.S. is critical for food security, as well as animal health and well-being.

The SPS plan addresses the following FADs:

• Foot and mouth disease (FMD)
• Classical swine fever (CSF)
• African swine fever (ASF)

You can find more information about the SPS plan at www.securepork.org or through the National Pork Board.

The Swine Health Information Center coordinates a global disease-monitoring program and conducts targeted research about reducing the impact of future disease threats. Biosecurity, whether at our borders or on-farm, continues to remain a critical factor in reducing the transport and transmission of disease.

I want to learn more about swine health and management recommendations.

Each year, we eagerly await the annual reports authored by various organizations and agencies that provide statistical analysis and trends of the industries we cover — grain, feed and flour milling. One of the most interesting is Alltech’s annual Global Feed Survey, released each year at the end of January.
