Nutrition<\/strong><\/h1>\n

The overall goal of the nutrition research program at the Prairie Swine Centre is to improve the economic, environmental, and social sustainability of pork producers.\u00a0 This includes research projects to improve our understanding of nutrition in all stages of pig production including nutrient requirements, impact of feed processing and feed additives, and the interaction of nutrition and pig health.\u00a0 We work closely with researchers at the University of Saskatchewan, Western College of Veterinary Medicine, VIDO-InterVac and across Canada to create a multi-disciplinary research program.<\/p>\n
