Akey Phase Feeding Program
Akey offers a variety of prestarter and starter diets, each designed for a specific stage of maturity of the digestive system. This allows a producer to choose the correct sequence of post-weaning diets that specifically matches individual farm weaning weights and ages.
A properly phased feeding program utilizing a series of prestarter and starter diets will provide a smooth transition from mother’s milk to corn/soy diets in addition to optimizing performance and cost. Modifications can also be made in the overall farm nursery feeding program to fit the unique nutritional needs of lightweight and “fall-back” pigs to enhance total group uniformity.
