Soybean meal net energy has been found to be higher in commercial settings, which changes the formulation strategies and economics of soybean meal use in diets.
To find out more about this difference in soybean meal net energy and productive energy in commercial swine diets versus book values and how this improved understanding impacts formulation strategies for nutritionists and economic considerations we catch up with with Dr. Aaron Gaines, managing partner of Ani-Tek, LLC, and Dr. Bart Borg, vice president of feed and nutrition with Passel Farms.
Gaines and Borg spoke at the Iowa Swine Day Pre-conference Symposium titled "Soybean Meal 360° — Expanding our horizons through discoveries and field-proven feeding strategies for improving pork production.” Gaines focused on soybean meal net energy and productive energy in commercial swine systems versus industry book values, while Borg talked about the practical application of this new information relative to the conventional low-cost ingredient formulation approach.
