Los antimicrobianos se utilizan ampliamente en la producción porcina y contribuyen en gran medida a mejorar la salud de los cerdos. Sin embargo, la aparición global y creciente de agentes resistentes a los antimicrobianos (RAM) ocasionó que muchos países (principalmente los de la Unión Europea) restringieran su utilización en los sistemas productivos. Esta realidad, no es ajena para Latinoamérica, ya que en diferentes países se está avanzando con legislaciones regulatorias. Para disminuir la utilización de antimicrobianos, hay una serie de medidas que son innegociables.. Lo que vas a aprender: Situación actual de la Argentina en relación a la utilización de antibióticos. Acciones que se están implementando a nivel nacional e internacional . No negociables en el uso racional de los antibióticos. ¿Cómo nos preparamos para los desafíos que se avecinan?

Sin lugar a dudas cuando hablamos de bienestar animal, los países de la unión europea son nuestro mayor referente. En los últimos 20 años se han dado diferentes cambios en la forma de crianza de los cerdos, ya sea por cambios a nivel legislativo o por cambios producto de la nueva mentalidad de los consumidores, quienes en la actualidad se preocupan por conocer bajo qué condiciones han sido criados los animales que consumen. La implementación de las prácticas de bienestar animal en los sistemas de producción porcino ha demostrado tener un impacto positivo sobre la salud de los animales, al reducir el estrés o problemas como los brotes de caudofagia, aumentando así la rentabilidad de los sistemas productivos. Lo que vas a aprender: Legislación base para el bienestar animal en la unión europea. Últimos avances en bienestar animal. Castración quirúrgica: ¿viable o no? ¿Qué debemos saber sobre los brotes de caudofagia y cómo afrontarlos? Nuestra invitada: La Dra.

In this episode of Feedstuffs Precision Pork, Dave Bauer, senior market analyst for Provimi, offers some hog market perspective and market highlights for the week as well as provides things to think about as we enter the new year.Does the Earth feel like it just may be tipping a bit? Well it just may be says Bauer because of a large migration happening on the opposite side of the world. Starting today and through the 17th of the month, the Chinese people are celebrating the year of the ox and it is historically when 1.4 billion people travel home and spend time with family. That also means news out of China will be at a stand still until everyone returns to work in a couple of weeks. For global markets that means essentially a standstill until the Chinese return to back to work. What might this mean for the hog industry? What too is going on with rogue virus strains of African swine fever in the Chinese market? Bauer shares his insight.These are uncertain times and it will pay dividends to be well-prepared.

In this episode of Feedstuffs Precision Pork, Dave Bauer, senior market analyst for Provimi, offers some hog market perspective and market highlights for the week as well as provides things to think about as we enter the new year.As that iconic song goes: you have to know when to hold ‘em, know when to fold ‘em, know when to walk away and know when to run. Bauer explains there is a group of producers in China right now running away from the hand they have been dealt. Last week 17% of market hogs in China weighed in at about 198 lb. Normal weights have been 286 lb., which means they are leaving 88 lb. of opportunity on that train bound for nowhere. That’s a lost opportunity of $200 per pig.An indication that the disease pressure in China is severe right now? Or perhaps pressure from the media’s disclosure of illegal vaccine use? Bauer provides his thoughts.These are uncertain times and it will pay dividends to be well-prepared.

She offers some hog market perspective and market highlights for the week as well as provides some tips on how to efficiently manage nutrition in the face of high feed costs.The recent rally in ingredient prices continues to hold.

At the same time, export demand for U.S. soy to Europe is on the rise. In China, reports are that there were large purchases of ethanol and corn this week. This has fueled the market. This is the largest purchase of ethanol seen by China. What’s ahead? Holmes explains.These are uncertain times and it will pay dividends to be well-prepared.

In this episode of Feedstuffs Precision Pork, Dave Bauer, senior market analyst for Provimi, offers some hog market perspective and market highlights for the week as well as provides things to think about as we prepare for a new year.There still a large book of 2020 purchases to be shipped to China but those will likely be rolled into the new year rather than canceled, say Bauer. There was a speed bump on the slaughter side of things this past week as the Columbus Junction pork plant ran into some mechanical issues and diverted hogs to other plants.

In this episode of Feedstuffs Precision Pork, Dave Bauer, senior market analyst for Provimi, offers some hog market perspective and market highlights for the week as well as provides things to think about as we prepare for next week. Hog slaughter over the past five weeks has averaged 2.645 million head, down approximately 1.5% over the past couple of weeks, likely due to the Thanksgiving holiday.Since the Sept. 1st survey of the hogs and pigs estimates, slaughter has run below the U.S. Department of Agriculture estimate, down about 0.05% from last year’s slaughter pace. Now over the next eight weeks and represented by the 50 to 119 lb. estimate from the report, slaughter will likely average 3.5% below last year, or an average of 2.5 million head per week. Taking out the Christmas and New Year holiday weeks, that average moves up to about 2.625 million head. Either way, Bauer said, we are also watching weights increase quickly over the past couple of weeks and we'll have plenty of hogs. The concern will now be can we continue to processing and clear that pork. New pork sales were up 66% last week to 31,300 metric tons, which is up 6% versus the four-week average. Mexico led with 13,000 metric tons of that, or 41%, with China following with 24%, or 7,400 metric tons. 2021 sales of 4,200 metric tons were led by China with 1,400 metric tons or 33% of that total. What’s ahead for future shipments? Bauer explains. What too is ahead for profitability? Bauer explains.These are uncertain times and it will pay dividends to be well-prepared.

It's the season for that time-honored tradition of getting out the turkey fryer. Although this year travel restrictions will likely reduce the group size at the table, Provimi senior market analyst David Bauer encourages you all to take time to prepare your own personal feast of celebration and maybe even to consider pork as an option. He’s just not sure how exactly that loin will cook up in the fryer. The accumulated slaughter over the past five weeks has averaged 2.688 million head, according to Bauer. Over that period, the average weekday kill has been 485,760 head. The first four days this week averaged 491,500 head, but the three-week average for Friday has been just over 483,000 head. So, let's say we're able to reach 480,000 head Friday and right now Saturday is estimated at 279,000 head that would produce a 2.75 million head kill for the week. Unless USDA comes back with adjustments on Monday due to plant or labor issues, Bauer believes that should stick. Weights were up 1.5 lb. last week, as year-to-date slaughter remains 1% over last year with pork production 1.8% over last year. Bauer believes non-holiday weeks into yearend could remain either side of 2.7 million head per week, unless there are issues around plant or plant labor due to COVID concerns. New pork sales fell 22% from last week.China has slowed down on new purchases and Bauer thinks we need to get used to that. Although year to date accumulated shipments and outstanding sales are currently 118% of last year, he said we won't see those kinds of numbers in 2021 as herd growth in China and a gradual increase in pork production is anticipated.What’s ahead for profitability? Bauer explains.These are uncertain times and it will pay dividends to be well-prepared.
