Probiotic supplementation during the nursery period may enhance growth performance, reduce fecal odor, and improve carcass quality in pigs.

Pellet processing related with die thickness may become a relevant factor explaining maximum protein and amino acid digestibility in growing pigs.

Oral probiotic supplementation may reduce mortality in low-birth-weight piglets.

Canola meal may be considered as a sustainable protein source for sow diets without affecting reproductive performance and health.

Low-protein diets in finishing pigs may improve nitrogen efficiency without affecting performance and carcass quality.

Dietary protein reduction together with amino acid supplementation may improve nitrogen retention in growing-finishing pigs.

Tannic acid supplementation may improve gut health in weaned piglets.

Increased dietary fiber supplementation in late gestation may enhance health and performance in sows and piglets.

Dietary glutamine supplementation after weaning can improve pig health and pork quality traits at slaughter.

Amino acid balanced low protein diets may reduce nitrogen excretion without affecting efficiency in finishing pigs.

Bacillus-based probiotic supplementation may reduce rotavirus effects in weaned piglets.

Co-supplementation of B. Subtilis and L-arginine in gestating sows may improve reproductive performance and litter quality.
