Iron supplementation in piglets
Manage episode 342006165 series 3398043
Pigs develop anaemia when their blood is incapable of carrying enough oxygen to tissues and organs. Lactating piglets are most affected by anaemia due to iron deficiency. Anaemia negatively impacts body condition, immune response, and animal welfare. For the pig farmer, this translates as lower daily gains and losses from disease.
Today, we discuss about Iron supplementation in piglets with our special guests, Michael Agerly and Michael Albin.
