Pathway to Profitability
Our vision for the pathway to profit includes fine-tuning the pigs’ genetic performance and increasing focus on providing solutions that meet the need of the customer and the end consumer.
The use of technologies, such as nutrigenomics, which accurately evaluate the impact of nutritional ingredients on key genes, can be central, not only for improving animal health and performance, but also to improve meat quality. Taste, moisture retention, antioxidant levels in the meat, freshness, shelf-life, fat content and color, as well as the tenderness of the meat may all be influenced by the presence or lack of nutrients in the animal’s diet, and the timing of their delivery.
The key factors that will enable pig companies to advance into the future will be the ability to offer tasty, safe and attractive products to the consumers and to generate them according to consumer expectations. Offering demonstrably better products is a clear pathway to profitability.
