AB Neo Innovation Farm

(Centre of Excellence)

We are totally committed to pig production research and continue to work with numerous university partners. We also have direct access to AB Neo’s state-of-the-art innovation farm based in Spain.

The farm has facilities for up to 8,400 piglets in a cloud-based environmental controlled system with links to the maternity farm, allowing for pre-weaning nutrition evaluation, as well as to the grower/finisher farms so that we fully evaluate impacts on lifetime performance. This facility will allow us to test our class-leading innovation in ‘near market’ conditions.

What makes Primary Diets different?

In our 25 year history, Primary Diets has continued to follow three core philosophies to get us where we are today:

1) Ongoing Research Programme

Knowledge and understanding of the real nutritional needs of piglets has been our driving force. Our continuous research programme, working with key universities (over 300 trials to date at the University of Leeds) and commercial customers, is exclusively focused on piglet nutrition.

2) Improved Fixed Formulation

Our formulations are fixed so that the feed is the same in every delivery. We do not change formulations to meet a price, they are maintained to meet performance and therefore consistency on farm.

3) High Quality Ingredients

Only quality raw materials are used to maximise early piglet performance. Quality and food safety are not compromised for price and milk proteins are always of food grade quality to maximise digestibility and nutrient utilisation.
