During the period after service up to
farrowing, dry sows must be given a Dry
Sow ration, at 2.0 - 2.5 kg feed per day,
depending on the condition of the sow.
The pregnant sow should increase her
bodyweight by about 40 kg during the
114 days of pregnancy. Feeding a sow
during pregnancy not only stimulates
higher milk production but has a major
impact on the birth weight and liveability
of the young piglets. This will result in a
considerable reduction in deaths before
weaning.
Furthermore is the importance of the
significant negative relationship that
exists between feed intake during
pregnancy and the sow’s appetite during
lactation. The more the sow consumes
during pregnancy, the lower her feed
intake will be during lactation, and the
poorer her condition at weaning. It is
therefore important that the dry sow
does not receive more than 2.5 kg of feed
per day
