EFFECT OF SSF PRODUCTS ON GROWTH PERFORMANCE AND GUT INTEGRITY

UNLOCK YOUR PROTEIN

Swine diets are mostly based on cereal grains and soybean meal, but sustainability demands new solutions. MAXFERM/PRO, a dried fungal fermentation product, enhances nutrient digestibility, strengthens gut integrity, and reduces environmental impact. Read on to see how it’s shaping the future of pig production.

MAXFERM/PRO solutes cells of protein-rich feedstuffs and releases proteins from the colloidal system of cytoplasm and cell wall structures. In addition, MAXFERM/PRO removes branched sugar-protein complexes and increases the degradation of non-starch polysaccharides. The multifactorial impact of MAXFERM/PRO increases total tract digestibility allowing to reduce dietary crude protein content and nitrogen excretion. Some of its various effects were proven in the research highlighted below.

A meta-analysis of three trials with 1,200 grower-finisher pigs showed that replacing soybean meal with corn and adding MAXFERM/PRO allowed a 1% reduction in crude protein without compromising performance. Additional benefits included:

• 13% less nitrogen excretion per pig

• 17% lower ammonia concentration in barn air

The postbiotic effects of MAXFERM/PRO can be summarized with an improved gut integrity, faster wound healing and a strengthened intestinal barrier, resulting e.g. in 45% fewer medical treatments.
