Impact of Dietary Electrolyte Balance on Performance, Inflammation, and Gut Integrity of Lactating Sow Under Heat Stress
In conclusion, increasing dietary dEB from 230 to 270-290 mEq/kg with bicarbonate supplementation improved feed intake and piglets weight at weaning, suggesting that a dEB around 270 mEq/kg is optimal for supporting sow reproductive performance under heat stress.
