Economic Evaluation of Nutritional Strategies that Affect Manure Volume , Nutrient Content , and Odor Emissions

The ability to manage modern pork production systems for minimal environmental pollution has improved dramatically during the past decade, but continues to be one of the most significant challenges facing the pork industry around the world. Nutrition plays a significant role in environmental sustainability of pork production, but the development and implementation of “eco-nutrition” swine feedings programs is in its infancy.
