The technical booklet "Feeding pigs in organic farming" is intended for farmers and advisors. It is based on the results of four research projects and provides a synthesis of information on e.g. the regulations concerning the feeding of organic pigs, feeding management and the needs of animals according to their physiological stage. Furthermore, it includes information on the nutritive value of organic raw materials, examples of diet formulation and expected performances, the use of feedstuff and its manufacturing on the farm. This document has been produced specifically for organic farming, but may be useful for all pig farmers. It can be used regardless of a farm's location. |

The video "Foraging of sows on high-protein grassland" presents the results of a trial conducted on the Trinottières pig experimental farm on 6000 m² of grassland, containing grasses and fodder legumes. The aim is to test rotational grazing on pregnant sows, whose concentrated feed is reduced in quantity and protein, and to observe the feeding behaviour of sows, the circulation of animals, and the consumption of feedstuff. The trial was seemed to support this method. However, it suggests that a full ration should be maintained at the end of the pregnancy. This tool is interesting for both farmers and advisors, and can also be used in conventional outdoor breeding. It can be used in any geographical area where animals have access to the outdoors. |
