I want to give my modest and late answer to their question:


I want to send him my comment about the humid feeding in sows lactantes. In Mexico the great majority of the farms is in temperate and warm areas, in those which, in hot times, temperatures are had that reduce the voluntary consumption of food of the sows lactantes until in 40%, with the resulting damages in the corporal condition, I carry out reproductive later, I weigh of its litter, among other aspects. So that the humid feeding (in form of pasta) it has been a tool that has allowed us contrarestar in an important degree the negative effects of the low consumption of food. The use of humid food in well-known offer systems in Mexico like little and frequent", that is to say to offer at least 4 times a day food to the sows, it has been beneficent for the farms that make good use of the system.

The main disadvantages of the system have to do with the quick decomposition of the I think, for what is necessary a rigorous handling in 2 senses: 1) to only prepare the food that will be used for the following 4 hours, and 2) to make sure that food of the previous food doesn't exist before serving a new portion.

Lastly, I comment him that it is clear that the sows like it much more the humid food, for that that their use still under climatic conditions of termoneutralidad he/she gives good been also.

Receive a fraternal greeting.

what I explain to you the Sr Roberto Martinez is correct. In Yucatan Mexico has a relative húmedad of 70% during 7 or 8 months a year, and this form of humid feeding still gives us results with our conditions. The dry consumption against Humid increases us in 1.2 food kg.
What was made is also that the feeding was proven 4,5,6,7 and 8 times to the day and the biggest consumption fué 4 times a day. The important thing is that food was served and what you/they didn't waste away moved away. The best result fué with having served every 6 hours. Greetings

it is true, it is a success the humid, managed food as well as it is said, more times and smaller quantity.
But equal would be good to speak of the waste. We see that the piensos occupies a very high percentage inside the production costs. Then it is necessary to be careful with this. It is necessary to guarantee a total consumption in each one of the daily portions, with the minor I waste possible. Let us remember that this can end up being significant in the production costs.
