Products for
Sows
Your sow has our full attention
Your sow is an animal with special needs, as the job she is doing is also special.
She uses a lot of energy on pregnancy, labour and milking her piglets. This is not an easy task. She needs a lot of minerals and vitamins to give them to the piglets with milk and to keep herself in shape.
We all want the sows to have a lot of milk they can give to the piglets, so they can grow big and healthy.
The more quality products we can give her the more she can deliver to the piglets.
But we cannot forget that we also want the sow to have a good and long life. The better we can do to her the better she can pay back to us. Her welfare should be on our priority list.
Danvit is ready to offer you a wide range of products that can make your and your sow’s work easier.

LifeMatters
We believe that there is more we can do to help the sows.
According to SEGES in 2023 the sows’ mortality rate in Denmark was above 14%.
We want to face this challenge. In Danvit we have full focus on sows as they are the heart of all pig production. We not only want her to have a long life but we also want her to have a good life. Animal welfare is on top of our priority list. This is why we came up with LafeMatters concept.

VA customer: You get what you pay for
There are many different approaches to feed selection in livestock production, but it pays to keep feed quality in mind when making feed choices. Feed quality can have a major impact on animal health and overall production efficiency.
Troels Lundby runs a herd of 670 sows in the Holstebro area, and he has experienced first-hand what quality feed can do for his herd. Troels had a DLBR Business Check carried out, which showed that he had the lowest feed costs per pig produced compared to similar farms – despite not necessarily going for the cheapest feed products for his production.
– “Basically, we mostly go for quality. I never actually ask about the price. We leave the feed part to the VA, and then we take care of the pigs,” says Troels Lundby.
Troels has learnt over the years that good quality feed makes the animals perform, which results in low feed costs per pig produced. He also believes that there is a clear correlation between price and quality when it comes to feed:
– “There’s probably no doubt that if you want quality, you have to pay a little more. But it’s certainly my impression that when you do business with VA, it goes hand in hand. You get what you pay for,” says Troels.
