We are what we eat. This saying goes not only for us, as human beings, but also for the pigs, which depend on having a healthy diet. With the collaboration of the University of Ghent specialists, we developed a feed formulation for our pigs based on in-depth research. So we focused on three pillars:
TASTE & TENDERNESS OF THE MEAT
Olive oil enhances the taste of the meat and makes it even tenderer. Thanks to our pig feed program, fat forms at the right time in animal development.
YOUR HEALTH
Olive oil contains lots of monounsaturated fatty acids. Our pigs absorb this oil as part of their feed, so we find a similar amount of fatty acids in the pigs’ body fat. This helps to prevent human heart disease.
A FIXED FORMULATION
The ingredients in our pig feed are based on scientific research. The basis of this feed is a blend of pure raw grains, fibres, and proteins. By always sticking to the same formulation, we can guarantee the consistent quality of our uniquely tender pork meat.
