Feeding directions

The page says to add approved medication as needed. It says daily feeding rates for sows and gilts in gestation will depend on achieving individual body condition targets. It does not print a pounds-per-head rate. For stool condition, it says to replace 10–20 lb of corn with Farrow Pac Plus in the lactation diet. No product page for Farrow Pac Plus was found, so it is not a product file.

The stated inclusion is 80 lb per ton. The page also prints on-farm formulation mixes and says those diet specs are an estimate and depend on the commodities used. Those tables are not copied here. The mixes named on the page are an 11.5% protein gestation diet and an 18% protein lactation diet. The lactation mix names Sunglo Liquafat.
