Potassium chloride in pig feed reduces PSE meat incidence

The main biological function of potassium qqB China feed industry information network - based on feed, service animal husbandry

Regulate intracellular osmotic pressure, water balance and acid-base balance, maintain sodium/potassium ATPase activity on cell membranes, and the specific performance in production is: qqB China Feed Industry Information Network - based on feed, serving animal husbandry

1. Stimulate protein synthesis in the body, especially to increase the utilization rate of lysine. qqB China Feed Industry Information Network - based on feed, serving animal husbandry

2. Maintain the water storage capacity of the cells and reduce the incidence of PSE meat. qqB China Feed Industry Information Network - based on feed, serving animal husbandry

3. Improve animal performance by adjusting electrolyte balance. qqB China Feed Industry Information Network - based on feed, serving animal husbandry

4. Relieve the heat stress of animals. qqB China Feed Industry Information Network - based on feed, serving animal husbandry

Why is the recent feed of pigs need to add potassium chloride? qqB China Feed Industry Information Network - based on feed, serving animal husbandry

1. With the selection of pig lean meat rate, the potassium index recommended by NRC1998 can not maximize the protein synthesis of commercial pigs and meet the best performance of sows. qqB China Feed Industry Information Network - based on feed, serving animal husbandry

2. Due to the breeding of pig breeds, the ability of pigs to resist stress is reduced, and the incidence of PSE meat after pig slaughter increases. Adding potassium chloride to the feed can increase the muscle strength of the muscle and reduce the incidence of PSE meat. qqB China Feed Industry Information Network - based on feed, serving animal husbandry

3. Because the feed industry generally accepts the idea of ​​low-protein diets, the use of soybean meal in formulations is getting lower and lower, resulting in lower levels of potassium from natural sources, so potassium chloride needs to be added. qqB China Feed Industry Information Network - based on feed, serving animal husbandry

4. Recently, the price of soybean meal has skyrocketed. In order to reduce the cost of feed, the formulator has increased the amount of miscellaneous in the formula, which in turn led to a further decline in potassium from natural sources. qqB China Feed Industry Information Network - based on feed, serving animal husbandry

5, in the case of high temperature, by adding potassium chloride to the feed can change the body's electrolyte and acid-base balance, improve the body's ability to resist heat stress. qqB China Feed Industry Information Network - based on feed, serving animal husbandry

6. By adding potassium chloride to the feed, adjusting the electrolyte balance of the body can increase the feed intake of lactating sows, increase the weight of weaning nests, and prevent constipation in sows. qqB China Feed Industry Information Network - based on feed, serving animal husbandry

Suggested addition amount of potassium chloride in pig feed qqB China feed industry information network - based on feed, service animal husbandry

1. It is recommended to add 1.5kg/T potassium chloride to pig feed below 30kg. qqB China Feed Industry Information Network - based on feed, serving animal husbandry

2. It is recommended to add 1.0kg/T potassium chloride to pig feed of 30kg or more. qqB China Feed Industry Information Network - based on feed, serving animal husbandry

3, pregnant sow feed is recommended to add 1.2kg / T potassium chloride; lactating sow feed is recommended to add 2kg / T potassium chloride. qqB China Feed Industry Information Network - based on feed, serving animal husbandry

4. After adding potassium chloride to the feed, add baking soda as appropriate. qqB China Feed Industry Information Network - based on feed, serving animal husbandry
