Alltech introduces an innovative solution called Triad
"It is exciting to bring a solution to market with such a strong return opportunity", said Andy Rash, general manager of Alltech’s U.S. swine business. "Minimizing stillborns and low-viability pigs at the rate in which we can with Triad is a direct improvement in profit, as more pigs equal more profit".
Sow throughput can be compromised by a higher incidence of stillborn pigs and pre-wean death losses, decreasing overall performance for swine producers. Effective during short feeding intervals, Triad supports sows during parturition and lessened pre-wean mortality, driving more pigs and more pounds long-term.
"Helping producers keep more pigs they work so hard to produce in the production chain is a great challenge to address,” Rash said. “The industry makes such a large investment in total pigs born, but focusing on pigs weaned is the real opportunity".
