Swine
Life cycle
Farrowing operators
To raise piglets in the best conditions, farrowing operators need access to technical advice and a range of cost-effective and performing feeds that are perfectly adapted to sows and piglets. That’s what we’re here to provide.
Farrow-to-finish farmer
The challenge for farrow-to-finish farmers is to provide the best environment, feed and comfort for swine to reach their full genetic potential while maintaining swine health, welfare and meat quality. To succeed, they can rely on our agri-advisors’ technical and economic support and on our full range of feeds.
