The European Union has completed its removal of in feed antibiotic growth promoters (AGPs) and consequently, a growing number of alternative feeding strategies for pig production have been identified. These full circle strategies include the use of nutraceutical products (or pronutrients), carefully tailored nutritional additives, better husbandry, housing, management and biosecurity.

This booklet reviews these approaches and offers natural solutions for achieving optimum health and performance from pig production, while successfully managing the removal of AGPs.
