An intelligent choice 💡

Did you know that the grow-finish period is the longest phase in commercial swine production – and the greatest opportunity to improve pig health and welfare? The two of them go together, and improving them at that phase results in improved feed efficiency, ensures a more homogenous herd, and reduces the need for antibiotics. 

🤔 But is there a smarter way to do it?

• Well, minerals play a very important role here – they can greatly improve the overall immune capacity of the pig by increasing T-lymphocyte and macrophage function. And in a large meta-analysis of seven trials performed in the US, it was found that the use of IntelliBond C at 150 ppm throughout the entire grow-finish period can improve final bodyweight (+4.3 lbs), carcass weight (+3.6 lbs), and feed conversion ratio (-0.02) (P<0.05). 

🔍 So let’s cut to the chase: IntelliBond is the only hydroxy trace mineral source proven to improve the resiliency of pigs and lead to a more uniform herd – it ensures sustained performance and reduced economic uncertainty! So intelligent, the name itself gives it away… Click here to learn more about it!
