A new study, published in Animals (2024), investigates the effects of adding spray-dried plasma (SDP) in Phase 2 diets for weanling pigs. The research indicates that diets with SDP, especially when combined with low crude protein, significantly improve growth performance, lower diarrhea rates, and reduce intestinal inflammation. The study also highlights reduced pro-inflammatory cytokines, enhancing overall pig health. These findings offer swine producers actionable strategies for managing the critical post-weaning period.
