Science-driven solutions for swine performance and health

Lallemand Animal Nutrition’s approach to performance and resilience.

Producers face mounting challenges—from rising feed costs and pressure to meet consumer demands for sustainable and responsible animal management and farming practices. Optimizing pig health and performance while maintaining profitability is more critical than ever. Lallemand Animal Nutrition, a global leader in microbial solutions, is helping producers meet these demands through innovative, science-backed products tailored to swine physiology and production goals.

Central to Lallemand’s approach are three interconnected pillars of swine nutrition and health:

  1. Energy metabolism and gut inflammation
  2. Protein kinetics of absorption
  3. Fiber fermentation and microbiota modulation

These pillars are not just theoretical—they are practical levers for improving productivity, animal welfare and long-term sustainability.

A holistic view for swine nutrition and health

Lallemand’s swine solutions extend beyond seasonal management challenges. The science-backed microbial solutions support:

Efficient energy metabolism (1), reducing the negative implications of gut inflammation (2) and improving feed conversion (3).

Optimized protein absorption (4), especially in weaned piglets, to enhance growth and gut health.

Balanced fiber fermentation (5, 4), supporting a healthy microbiota and immune function.

These strategies are supported by a suite of microbial products, including probiotics, yeast derivatives and postbiotics, and animal environment and housing solutions all designed to work in harmony with the pig’s physiology, life stage challenges and needs of the industry.

In this episode of The Swine it Podcast Show Canada, Swaminathan Jayaraman, Research Assistant and PhD Candidate at Iowa State University College of Veterinary Medicine, explains how integrated data systems can improve disease surveillance in swine production. He discusses combining diagnostics, animal movement data, production records, and spatial analytics to identify risks earlier and support proactive decision-making for PRRS, PED, and swine influenza. Listen now on all major platforms!

"Disease surveillance remains largely reactive because outbreaks are often confirmed only after transmission has already occurred across multiple connected production sites."

Meet the guest: Swaminathan Jayaraman / swamjay is a Graduate Research Assistant at Iowa State University College of Veterinary Medicine. With academic training in management information systems and engineering, he focuses on integrating diagnostic, production, and movement data to improve disease surveillance and decision support in swine production systems.
