The sow gestation period
After a demanding lactation period, you should bring your sow’s condition back to normal at the start of the gestation period. Following the sow’s gestation period, we can help you determine the condition of newly mated sows (measuring sow fat levels) so that we can make targeted adjustments to their feeding schedule.
Optimise growth and vitality after sow gestation
Having sufficient rest is crucial for newly mated sows, as it allows the embryos to settle properly in the uterus. During the second part of the sow’s gestation period, we focus on the growth and vitality of the piglets in utero. We work with you to draw up tailored feeding schedules for during and after the sow gestation period. Sometimes, this might include using a second-stage gestation feed, for example.
