We will be joined by Dr. Francesc Molist, Manager of Research and Development with Schothorst Feed Research who will discuss nutritional and management approaches to Zinc Oxide removal. We will then hear from Edgar Garcia Manzanilla, Head of the Teagasc Pig Development Department who will discuss removing Zinc Oxide and reducing antimicrobials step by step.

We will also hear from a number of pig producers who will share their experiences and insights thus far in removing Zinc Oxide from weaner diets.

All contributors will then partake in a Q&A session where we will encourage all those in attendance to put forward any questions or opinions that they may have.

We really encourage as many as possible to attend this lunchtime event and strongly urge producers to ensure as many staff as possible attend as there will be plenty of information and discussion of value for all.
