Godrej Agrovet launches Pride Hog animal feed series to boost pigs’ immunity
New Delhi| Godrej Agrovet Limited announced the launch of Godrej Pride Hog, a scientifically developed swine feed range designed to provide the best nutrition at every stage of the life cycle of pigs. This series includes starter, grower and finisher variants, ensuring balanced nutrition for better health, immunity and growth. Balram Singh Yadav, managing director of Godrej Agrovet, said in remarks at this launch, “there are about 9 million pigs in the country half of which are in the Northeast. Pig farming is an important source of livelihood for small and marginal farmers.
In line with our commitment to uplifting farm families, Pride Hog provides high-quality, research-based animal feeding solutions that improve pig health, increase immunity and take growth potential to the highest levels. We are confident that it will contribute to improving the profitability and productivity of farmers.” The ASF has presented some major challenges to pig farmers in the Northeast since its first identification in 2020. This highly contagious viral disease affects domestic and feral pigs and has serious economic consequences due to their high mortality rate. General Manager of Assam Livestock and Poultry Corporation Limited, Dr. “The Northeast is vulnerable to ASF outbreaks”, Purnanand Konwar said. Preventive measures and modern pig farming practices are therefore urgently needed.
Initiatives such as the National Livestock Mission are helping farmers and businesses take a scientific approach to adopting resilience in this sector Godrej Agrovet chief executive – animal feeding business, Captain (Dr.) A.Y. Rajendra said about the nutritional benefits of Pride Hog, “Pride Hog is not just fodder – it is a comprehensive nutritional solution designed to meet the needs of pigs at every developmental stage”. From preventing mortality and diarrhoea of piglets (piglets) to boosting immunity, our feed ensures faster growth and overall health
