SW MN - mt. lake/windom | So assuming production is the same, same number pigs in and out same number of turns per year, same wts in and out then one would have to assume it’s genetic or feed. Unlikely for genetics to change that rapidly. Surprised that feed changed in 23’ when producers were losing money. I would have expected feed to change in 22’ as feed costs increased and margins were good. As a general rule of thumb, for pigs to be higher nutrient efficient one must put higher cost or value nutrients into said animal, most of the time it doesn’t pencil in but sometimes with higher feed costs and improved daily gains it does. It generally takes both sides of the equation for that to happen and there was no advantage to put on extra pounds when producers were losing money last 16 months on every pound. On the plus side for you, with feed costs lower it’s likely that the feeding program will revert back to previous levels. | |
