ONE SURE WAY TO PRODUCE PORK EFFICIENTLY

U.S. Feeds provides a unique program through Dealers and Feed Consultants with practical experience and knowledge of swine management, genetics, nutrition, health and marketing.  We know the science, the art and the economics of hog production and we are committed to recommending the right program for each customer.

U.S. Feeds has upgraded Premium swine products and feeding recommendations to reflect the very latest research and slaughter data.  New Premium Weaner, Starter, Excelerator and Baby Pig Mixer provide a smoother transition of nutrients from piglet to growing pig.  For example, new starters have revised levels of protein, essential amino acids, lactose, energy and vitamins.  In addition, food grade nutrient sources are incorporated with special ingredients such as fish meal, skim milk, dried whey, animal plasma and gelatinized cereals.  Also, all swine products now include Sel-PlexTM to improve selenium status in the breeding herd and baby pigs, as well as growing and finishing pigs.

Overall, we believe the design of your feeding program should be based upon four key factors:

  • The genetic make-up of your herd and subsequent carcass analysis
  • Marketing programs and specific packer requirements
  • The nutritional profile of your grains
  • Feed intake and milling requirements of your operation

Armed with this information, your U.S. Feeds representative is equipped with knowledge and tools to define precise rations and feeding recommendations that will maximize your herd performance.  Contact U.S. Feeds today to learn about solutions tailored for your swine herd!
