New studies reveal that the three-strain Bacillus probiotic can better protect weaned piglets against diverse health challenges.
IFF (NYSE:IFF) today announced the extension of their three-strain Bacillus probiotic, Enviva® PRO, to pigs. By incorporating IFF’s probiotic into their diet, producers will be better positioned to protect their animals against diverse health challenges. The extension of Enviva® PRO enhances IFF’s robust portfolio of proven, cost-effective animal nutrition and health solutions that help customers optimize production, livability and profitability.
“The weaning and post-weaning period can be extremely difficult to navigate for swine producers, so implementing a nutritional management strategy is crucial for improving their welfare and avoiding growth setbacks,” said Dr. Ester Vinyeta, swine innovation lead at IFF. “In addition to the proven benefits of Enviva® PRO already experienced by broiler producers, swine producers now can have peace of mind that their litters have optimal gut health – helping them meet growing production demands.”
Post-weaning, piglets may face challenges like nutritional stress, reduced feed intake, and digestive health issues, which can impact performance. Enviva® PRO is proven to establish and maintain a favorable nutribiotic state that supports optimal gut function, leading to improved nutrient digestion and performance. Extensive studies performed by IFF found that compared to the control group, Enviva® PRO improved average daily weight gain by 2.5% and reduced diarrhea frequency by 6.3%.
Enviva® PRO is currently available to swine producers across Japan and the US. IFF plans to extend availability to other territories following pending regulatory authorizations.
