Grower-Finisher Farm - Spain

A collaboration initiated in 2019 between Trouw Nutrition’s global research & development department, our Spanish affiliate Trouw Nutrition Spain, and subsidiaries Inga Food and Nanta culminated in the first swine validation farm in Spain in February 2020.

The coordinated effort at this farm enables us to take a holistic approach to research, nutrition and production. The R&D team brings a wealth of research experience to support us in carrying out scientifically sound trials. Trouw Nutrition Spain and Nanta understand customers’ needs and can test feed additives and novel feed formulations to meet specific farm requests. Inga Food brings the practical knowledge of animals and an outstanding network of farmers. By working together, we can achieve more. The validation farm is equipped with a state-of-the-art feeding system and water lines that deliver precise reporting on intake as well as the ability to randomize different feed and water treatments across the farm. All data generated at the farm is available 24/7 to facilitate real-time, remote monitoring and appropriate interventions when needed.
