Effect of low fiber diet on sows

Published: 2024-09-20 Author: mysheen
Last Updated: 2024/09/20, The low content of crude fiber in diet can also cause a series of problems in pregnant and lactating sows. If it is easy to cause constipation in sows, the reason may be that feed stays in the digestive tract for too long, absorbs too much water, and dry feces cause constipation; in addition, digestive tract problems such as gastric ulcers in sows in factory farming may also be related to dietary cellulose content. If the sows in the early stage of pregnancy are fed a low-fiber diet, it is difficult to feel full due to the limitation of feed intake, which will lead to problems such as loop jumping.
