Dr. Tom Crenshaw: Phosphorus in Swine Diets - Part 2 | Ep. 147

In this episode of The Swine Nutrition Blackbelt Podcast, Dr. Tom Crenshaw from the University of Wisconsin-Madison continues the discussion on the complexities of managing phosphorus in swine diets. He talks about the physiological effects of overfeeding phosphorus and how it can interfere with important hormonal functions in pigs. Learn about ways to fine-tune phosphorus levels to boost animal health and lessen the environmental impact. Tune in for practical tips on improving nutrient efficiency! When excess phosphorus is added to the diet, it can shut down many natural mechanisms, potentially harming the animal's health." Dr. Tom Crenshaw, a professor in the Department of Animal Sciences at the University of Wisconsin-Madison for over 40 years, holds a Ph.D. in Animal Sciences from the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. An expert in swine nutrition, his research has significantly impacted the industry, focusing on experimental design, swine models, and biosecurity.
