In recent years the livestock industry has focused more attention and research on the topic of intestinal health in food animal production. At a recent industry symposium on the topic, a leading veterinarian at one of the nation’s largest swine production systems discussed the swine vet’s perspective and advice.
At the 4th annual Kemin Intestinal Health Symposium last week veterinarians, nutritionists and food animal producers discussed the latest research on topics related to intestinal health in the livestock space.
In this episode we talk with one of the presenters at the Symposium, Dr. Amy Maschhoff. Associate director of health at The Maschhoffs, one of the largest swine production systems in the U.S., Dr. Maschhoff discusses how production systems should approach the topic of intestinal health, and what she and her colleagues have learned from first-hand experience in their system.
