Dr. Jamil Faccin: Soybean Meal Levels in Pig Performance | Ep. 70

Considering that swine nutrition constitutes the majority of production costs, it is vital to consider economic factors when formulating feeds. While simply increasing soybean meal levels can improve pig performance, one must take into account the final cost and market projections, which are crucial in determining the most cost-effective formulation strategy. In this episode, Dr. Jamil Faccin discusses a study on soybean meal levels in pig diets and their effects on performance. The research aimed to determine the optimal amount of soybean meal based on market projections.
