Benefits of DinaBoost

Liquid DinaBoost consistently improves feed efficiencies by:

• Improving feed consumption in all swine
• Improving feed texture
• Aids in feed freshness

Liquid DinaBoost improves your bottom line by:

• Improving sow efficiency in lactation and reproduction
• Improving birth and weaning weights
• Improving nutrient stability and absorption

Liquid DinaBoost is unique in that it:

• Helps control hog house odor
• Provides easy wintertime handling

Dust Control
DinaBoost reduces the airborne dusts that increase the occurrence of swine respiratory stress.
Less stress means less respiratory disease. Less dust creates a healthier work environment for employees and producers.

Animal efficiency

DinaBoost stimulates appetite in swine of all sizes:

• DinaBoost fed sows milk heavier and rebreed sooner
• DinaBoost enhances pig performance in the crate and in the nursery
• DinaBoost helps keep grower/finisher hogs on feed

Freshens feed
DinaBoost acid levels help keep the freshly ground grain in fresh condition and animal appetite stimulated.

Easy year-round handling

• Requires no extra heat
• Does not solidify in cold weather like animal fats or blends

Five week trials in 2 phases (1st 2 weeks and following 3 weeks after weaning), utilizing a total of 324 weaning pigs (21+ 3 day) were conducted to determine the effects of different fat sources and combinations on starter pig performance.

Addition of fat to starter rations has been shown to enhance performance of weaned pigs. Research conducted at Kansas State University has demonstrated that the magnitude of the fat response is related to the source of fat and specific blends of fat. Thaler et al. (1988) compared the growth and feed efficiency of pigs (age=21 days) fed rations containing no added fat (control) to the performance of pigs fed rations containing either soybean oil, coconut oil, choice white grease, ½ soybean oil: ½ coconut oil or ½ choice white grease: ½ coconut oil. Fat supplementation improved the performance of pigs during the combined five week trials as compared to controls. Pigs fed rations containing ½ soybean oil: ½ coconut oil consumed more feed than pigs fed either coconut oil or choice white grease diets, and gained faster than pigs fed rations containing coconut oil and the daily feed intake was elevated.

Influence of Added Energy Sources in Nursery Pig Performances

The trial was conducted by Hawkeye Institute of Technology Agriculture Research Dept.

Summer conditions depress calorie and feed intake:
Avoid problems, stimulate appetites, and maintain productivity by adding DinaBoost.

1) A medium-short chain fatty acid (lard and coconut)

2) A long chain fatty acid product (vegetable)

Comparative Sow Energy Trial

The purpose of the three feed trials summarized below was to determine what effect different energy sources in sow late-gestation/lactation rations might have on pig litter sizes, litter weights at weaning and pig survivability.

Economic analysis also considered the added cost of both energy sources per ton of feed, the cost of each product per litter (per sow). The return on investment of each and the break even cost of both products.

The two energy sources were DinaBoost and soybean oil. Both products were added at 3% of total formula. All rations were identical except for energy sources.

The trials were conducted from December 1987 to early March 1988 by Hawkeye Institute of Technology Agriculture Research Department, Waterloo, IA.

Results:

• Vegetable oil pigs out gained the tallow pigs in first 21 days. 5.22% or 1.47 lbs per head.
• Vegetable oil pigs converted on less feed than tallow pigs. On an adjusted same weight basis, the savings were on the average 3.15 lbs. in the 0-21starting period or ~ 5.42% better.
• Feed efficiency was in favor of the vegetable oil fed pigs.
• Research states more uniform performance was seen by the pigs fed vegetable oil over tallow.

The DinaBoost ration in this test contained 40 pounds of liquid DinaBoost. The pigs eating DinaBoost ration ate more feed, were significantly larger at the end of the test, converted better and gained more on an average daily basis. The cost of gain on the DinaBoost ration was the cheapest of the three rations tested.
