Swine nutrition: nutrient usage during pregnancy and early postnatal growth, an introduction

P. A. Schoknecht
Department of Animal Sciences, Rutgers, State University of New Jersey, New Brunswick 08903-0231, USA.

This symposium was organized to review current knowledge of the nutrient requirements of sows during pregnancy and of pigs soon after birth. It consisted of five presentations that focused on energy metabolism, fiber as an energy source, protein requirements, vitamin and mineral requirements, and the special needs of newborn pigs. Additionally, this symposium was organized to honor the immense contributions of Dr. Wilson Pond to this field. The purpose of the introduction to this symposium was to highlight the major areas of research that were discussed within each presentation and the work of Dr. Pond that the present research uses as a foundation.
