Sustainable Swine Nutrition As climate change continues to have a
significant impact on the modern world, it is crucial to find
alternative sources of energy and nutrients for swine production.
The development of optimal feeding revolves around a multitude of
considerations--genetic variations in the pig, variability,
availability, and stability of nutrients in feed ingredients,
interactions among nutrients and non-nutritive factors, voluntary
feed intake, physical (& social) environment of pigs, and more.
Establishing the ideal network of factors will only grow in
importance as humans assess the methods for our own food networks.
