Trouw Nutrition are excited to once-again be chairing the youngstock session at this year's BSAS conference.

    A collaboration initiated in 2019 by Trouw Nutrition between its global Research & Development department, its Spanish affiliate Trouw Nutrition Spain, and its sister companies Inga Food and Nanta is culminating in the first swine validation farm in Spain. Validation farms are an integral part of assessing the efficacy and practical applications of dietary and management solutions in real-world conditions. Whereas the research facilities provide a highly controlled environment for evaluating innovations, studies carried out on commercial validation farms allow these innovations to be assessed under practical production conditions. Beyond verifying the effectiveness and applicability of innovations, validation farms provide customers with added confidence that solutions will deliver efficacy in their local markets.
