Reducing Weaning Stress in Piglets by Pre-Weaning Socialization and Gradual Separation from the Sow: A Review

Celine Van Kerschaver et al.

Summary: Weaning of pigs in commercial pork production induces stress and affects behavior, performance, and gastrointestinal tract. Traditional focus has been on nutritional strategies, housing conditions, and medication after weaning, but alternative pre-weaning systems that promote natural social behaviors of piglets have gained attention. Strategies like co-mingling non-littermates and intermittent suckling aim to initiate social interaction and gradual separation from the sow. These practices encourage explorative nutrient sourcing and reduce weaning-associated stress. The review defines these strategies and describes their effects on various aspects.

Management and Feeding Strategies in Early Life to Increase Piglet Performance and Welfare around Weaning: A Review

Laia Blavi et al.

Summary: The weaning period in swine industry is crucial, and a range of dietary and management strategies are needed to optimize health, maturity, and weight at weaning. Various strategies have been explored to enhance fetal growth, reduce oxidative and inflammatory status of sows, modulate sow microbiota, improve colostrum and milk production, and ensure care of neonatal piglets.
