How we work
The AHV Immunity and Resistance Programme promotes a well-balanced gut that is less susceptible to disturbances and supports effective nutrient utilisation – something that is crucial for good piglet development. There is no doubt that a healthy gastrointestinal tract is essential for the production efficiency of swine at any life stage.
Benefits
Technology
Intestinal microbiota play an important role in immune system development and overall health of piglets. Bacteria in biofilm are less sensitive to antibiotics and inaccessible to antibodies and immune cells. AHV’s patented technology disrupts the quorum sensing process and eradicates the biofilm structure. Without the “protection” of the biofilm, pathogenic bacteria become susceptible to immune cells.
Animal health
Due to stress (weaning, fighting, new environment), feed changes, insufficient feed intake and insufficient gastric acid production, pathogens can develop at gut level which can lead to challenges after weaning. By improving gut health with the Immunity & Resistance programme, piglets are less likely to experience the negative consequences associated with weaning.
Financial
A healthy gut helps achieve the genetic potential of the piglet. By improving gut health, piglets will experience fewer health challenges, reducing extra costs and growth retardation. This benefits the financial results.
