The Swine Nutrition Blackbelt Podcast exists to make peer-reviewed swine nutrition research practical and accessible. Every week we take a recent study — on amino acids and lysine requirements, gut health, weaning, feed efficiency, additives and pig performance — and distill it into roughly nine minutes of clear, actionable insight for producers, nutritionists and researchers.
Our goal is simple: help busy swine industry professionals stay current with the science without spending hours reading journals, and turn that research into better decisions on the farm.
