This project investigates the relationship between gut microbiota and the immune development of piglets in low input farming. By understanding how early microbial exposure influences gut functionality and overall health, the project aims to develop management strategies that enhance animal welfare and food safety.
Low input farming occurs under non-SPF (specific pathogen free) conditions.
The European ban on in-feed antibiotics exposes the piglets to a higher microbial environmental pressure.
The postnatal priming of piglets with a diverse microbiota may affect the development of the piglet’s host-defense and gut functionality.
By reversal, the piglets developing host-defense may affect the development of the gastro-intestinal microbiota.
Moreover, this intricate interplay between gut microbiota and its h…
