POWERFILL
• For slowing / limiting growth rate• Pigs still need to look great for the
show• Powerfill 3 lbs per day = 1 lbs growth
rate• Powerfill is unique – no other product
like it• Only Purina dealers sell it
MANAGING WEIGHT GAIN• Powerfill
– 1 lb / day gain 3 lbs Powerfill– 1.5 lb / day 2 lbs Powerfill + 2 lbs Feed
• FINAL 45 DAYS:• 2 lbs per day Powerfill• Then add High Octane supplements to
accomplish specific things in pig
MANAGING WEIGHT GAIN
• Small daily feeding rate• Concentrate:
– Protein (amino acids)– Energy
• Low daily feed = low daily gain• Must meet all daily requirements
MANAGING WEIGHT GAIN• Pig weighs 200 lb• Maximum weight is 270 lb• 60 days• Can gain 70 lbs• Remember you have about 6-7 lb
weight loss due to hauling (actually have 76 lb)
MANAGING WEIGHT GAIN• Most important: DON’T PANIC• Divide into 3 intervals• 1st 20 days – slowing • 2nd 20 days – increasing cover• 3rd 20 days – increasing muscle
