Feeder management trumps feed quality


An article posted recently by National Hog Farmer asked, "Does good pellet quality enhance finishing pig performance?"

The study and article determined that good quality pellet feed without proper management does not enhance growth rate, and poor pellet quality without proper feeder management can "impair finishing pig feed conversion."

National Hog Farmer article: "Does good pellet quality enhance finishing pig performance?"

The bottom line of the article and referenced study is that feeder management is the biggest determiner for a hog's growth rate.

We agree, and that’s why usability and efficiency are at the forefront of every hog feeder we produce.

So, regardless of what type of feed you use (pellet, mash, etc.), or what quality of feed you use — combine it with our efficient, easy-to-manage feeders and you can be confident in your pig performance!
