The sense of smell in pigs is estimated at being 2000 times superior to humans. Orego-Stim is an innovation which takes full advantage of this fact by making pigs’ meal times a more enjoyable experience integrating a blend of appealing aromas and tastes into pig feed. As a result, pigs consume more of their feed and grow faster.

As well as enhancing appetite, the natural essential oil components of Orego-Stim also have antibacterial, antiparasitic and antifungal effects in the gut. This helps precious nutrients to be adsorbed more easily resulting in optimum FCR and better return on investment for the pig farmer. The tables below summarise the effects of Orego-Stim on production in growing pigs and reproducing sows and their litters’.
