Trouw Nutrition research decodes piglet potential at 16th Symposium on Digestive Physiology of Pigs

In addition to serving as a gold sponsor of DPP-NA, Trouw Nutrition is contributing research on animal nutrition, gastro-intestinal development, water acidification, mycotoxin mitigation, and more. The company’s scientific contributions to the symposium include participation on two piglet nutrition panels and the submission of five scientific abstracts:
