The weaning period is a very stressful moment in the life of every piglet.
They move to a new environment and feed intake drops as a result.
They experience the ‘weaning dip’. High pre and post weaning feed intakes,
together with homogenous gut fll, are essential to prevent gastro intestinal
problems. To improve performance in this period Provimi has developed the
innovative Micrum Technology. Micrum feeds have been shown to successfully
improve piglet performance through optimal feed intake.
Micrum ensures stomach fll
One of the key features of Provimi’s Micrum Technology is the production of feeds with high
absorption capacity. Combined with water and gastric juices, Micrum products form a gel. This gel is
highly digestible and the piglet experiences an even gut fll, in contrast to a pellet or mash based diet.
Micrum is produced via amultistep processing
To produceMicrum the selection and processing of individual rawmaterials is essential.
An example is the inclusion of Provisoy, a processed soy protein. During the last phase
of the production process a pellet is produced, broken and fnely sieved. This results in a
dust freeMicrumstructure.
Let your piglets eat at ease!”
