MERVIT SOW VITAL essential for maximum longevity

What pig farmer is not aiming for in a healthy sow herd, raising many piglets thus resulting in economical farming? The genetic potential for litter size increases every year. At these high production levels however problems with health and longevity can easily occur. Pre-Mervo developed MERVIT SOW VITAL to overcome these problems with a threefold approach.

1) Improve Calcium metabolism: Calcium metabolism is vital for a high milk production and optimal bone mineralization. A mismatch in these processes clearly will affect performance and longevity. Therefore, amongst others, vitamin D3 as 25-hydrox-cholecalciferol is included in MERVIT SOW VITAL.

2) prevent claw lesions: Housing conditions and management on the farm are important for claw development and the prevention of claw lesions. However, nutrition of especially trace elements also play an important role in this respect. Mervit SOW VITAL contains therefore copper, zinc and manganese in organic form.

3) Optimise the micro element needs. Sow feed has to be well balanced in terms of macro and micro nutrients. MERVIT SOW VITAL is a premix with high quality trace elements and vitamins tuned to ensure sow performance and sow longevity.
