Feeding Guideline
AVIA Pig Breeding / Finishing Meal
For Finishing Pigs — Efficient Growth to Market Weight
- Feed approximately 2–3 kg per pig per day, adjusting according to body weight, growth rate, target market weight, body condition and environmental conditions.
- Feed intake should be monitored regularly and adjusted as the pig approaches the desired market weight.
For Breeding Gilts & Sows — Nutrition for Reproduction and Body Condition
- Breeding animals require controlled feeding rather than unrestricted intake — sufficient nutrition for reproductive performance while preventing excessive body condition.
- During gestation: feed approximately 2–2.5 kg per animal per day, adjusted according to body weight, parity and body condition.
- During lactation: approximately 3–4 kg feed per sow per day + around 200 g additional feed for each nursing piglet, adjusted to litter size, sow body condition and appetite.
- Clean drinking water must remain freely available, particularly during lactation when water demand increases markedly.
For Breeding Boars
- Maintain breeding boars on controlled feeding appropriate to their body weight, activity and condition.
- As a practical starting point, approximately 2.5 kg feed per day may be offered and adjusted to maintain healthy body condition without excessive fat deposition.
