Modern farms face a challenge: sow milk production often does not increase in proportion to the rising number of newborn piglets, despite improvements in reproductive performance. Within the same litter, underweight or later-born piglets frequently struggle to compete for milk, leading to nutritional deficiencies during their critical early days.

Historically, piglet nutrition focused mainly on the post-weaning period. However, recent research and practical production show that the neonatal to weaning phase is a fundamental period directly influencing a piglet's long-term growth and health.
According to a Greenfeed representative, this is when the piglet's digestive system, immune system, and nutrient metabolism develop rapidly. Appropriate nutritional support during this stage not only aids piglet development but also improves feed utilization, reduces disease treatment pressure, and enhances economic efficiency throughout the entire production cycle.
The trend of providing early-life nutrition for piglets has driven the development of specialized nutritional solutions. Among these, G.Nutri Premium supplementary milk emerges not just as a solution for litters with insufficient milk, but as a nutritional management tool to ensure uniform piglet development from day one.
Greenfeed applied scientific platforms such as nutrigenomics, microbiome combined with prebiotics, probiotics, and synbiotics, organic trace minerals, and acidification technology in developing G.Nutri Premium. The product's formulation mimics the composition and characteristics of sow's milk, incorporating high-quality protein, easily absorbed energy, and modern nutritional foundations. This combination supports the digestive system, enhances gut health, and promotes uniform piglet development from their initial life stages.
The effectiveness of G.Nutri Premium has been demonstrated through results in actual farming conditions. According to a Greenfeed representative, research on suckling piglets showed that the group using G.Nutri Premium (at the recommended dosage) achieved an average weaning weight of 6,62 kg per piglet, approximately 12% higher than the group that did not use the milk. The average daily gain (from three days old to weaning) reached 234,6 g per piglet per day, an increase of about 17%.

Beyond improved growth, the product also showed effectiveness in digestive health. The rate of piglets experiencing diarrhea in the group using G.Nutri Premium decreased by 20,1% compared to the group that did not use the milk (4,4%).
Expanded product trials at Greenfeed's customer farms also reflected positive trends. Piglets using G.Nutri Premium achieved an average weaning weight of 6,9 kg per piglet, 8% higher than the control group. Weight gain during the period from three days old to weaning increased by 11%. Concurrently, pre-weaning piglet mortality significantly decreased to below 2,3%, which was lower than the group not using the supplementary milk.
Guided by the philosophy "Green Nutrition – Grow Fast Every Day", Greenfeed invests in research and development of nutritional solutions based on scientific principles and practical production. G.Nutri Premium represents one of the company's initiatives to support farmers in building a healthy foundation for piglets from their earliest days.
