VitaPilotFlavoVital®
Success Story
Andreas Kornmann is a sow farmer in the Vogelsbergkreis in Hesse
The farm
- 500 sows
- about 15.000 piglets
- per year
The usage
- since 2019 sows in the farrowing pen get VitaPilot
- Dosage: 130 g VitaPilot® per animal/day
- Duration: one week before birth until weaning
The goal
- high feed intake
- stable milk yield
- healthy sows
- uniformly developed piglets
The success
Since the use of VitaPilot® the sows in the farrowing pen have been taking up to half a kilogram more feed every day. A central effect is that the animals start the suckling phase fit and without digestive problems – their milk yield is correspondingly stable. All piglets are sufficiently supplied with milk and the litters develop evenly. Weaning weights today are about half a kilogram higher than before the use of VitaPilot®. In first place, this makes the piglets marketable faster and has positive effects for their rearing. After all, well-developed young animals show no performance gaps after weaning and start in the piglet pen without energy problems.
Statement
„I am convinced of VitaPilot®. Because with this product I can build the foundation for the later performance in the piglet pen already in the farrowing house. I recommend the product to my colleagues because it increases the vitality of our piglets.““
