Animine recently presented
results from three piglet diet experiments conducted in Asia at the 15th
Conference of the Asian Association of Animal Production Bangkok.
HiZox, as a source of potentiated
zinc oxide, was tested at low inclusion rate in comparison to the
pharmacological dosage of the regular ZnO in piglet diets.
Trials differed by piglet age at weaning, feeding program during the nursery
phase, diet composition, levels and sources of zinc oxide, antibiotic
supplementation, and level of growth performance. In the typical conditions
found in the three countries, HiZox fed piglets had the highest growth,
resulting in increased weights at the end of the experimental phase.
Trials were supervised by Chulalongkorn University in Thailand, Dankook
University in Korea and the Institute of Agricultural Sciences in Vietnam.
