Inviting all swine nutritionists under the age of 50! Dr. R. Dean Boyd will share practical amino acid insights learned in the private sector that most young nutritionists were never taught.
Specifically, that one, formulating to ideal amino acid constraints work well, until it does not; and two, that synthetic amino acid limits in the growing phase are much higher than are profitable for finishing.
Drs. Bart Borg, VP, Passel Farms and Aaron Gaines, managing partner, Ani-Tek, will join the webinar to provide perspective on the topic. Respectfully referred to as the “Dean” of Swine Nutrition, Dr. Boyd has spent 40 years in the academic and private sector focused on amino acids and energy nutrition research.
Attend this webinar and learn:
- High amino acid levels can be used from weaning to early finishing (180 lbs), without harming growth and profit.
- However, even though diets are formulated based on established amino acid principles, high synthetic amino acid use in later finishing compromises growth and profit.
- Diet cost and auto-pilot formulation have become a silent profit robber without anyone knowing, except for the pig.
