More porks less farms equals bigger farms

The U.S. pork industry is experiencing an interesting shift: while the number of farms dedicated to pig farming has decreased, pork sales continue to climb. This trend reflects the growing efficiency and scalability of the swine industry, where fewer farms are managing to produce more, meeting the ever-increasing market demand.

But with fewer farms in operation, the importance of ensuring the intestinal well-being of the animals cannot be overstated. This is not just a marker of animal welfare, it’s a critical factor in maximizing productivity and maintaining sustainable practices.

In this context, focusing on gut wellness means promoting better nutrient absorption, enhancing the immune system, and ultimately contributing to the overall efficiency of the industry. As the industry evolves, so must our commitment to the health and well-being of the animals that sustain it.
