The publication presents the results of the effect on the body of young pigs reared with a synbiotic feed additive. The synbiotic product consists of two components: lyophilized probiotic cultures isolated from the digestive system of pigs, and a vegetable prebiotic filler. These ingredients are combined into a dry mixture to form a synbiotic with pro- and prebiotic properties. The effect of the additive on the viability of livestock, live weight and its growth, indicators of feed consumption were studied, and the results of general and biochemical blood analysis of experimental animals were analyzed. The study showed that the inclusion of synbiotics in the diet of young pigs does not cause negative effects and is well tolerated by animals. In pigs receiving the supplement, an improvement in a number of indicators was noted: an increase in body weight gain, an increase in survival rate, as well as a decrease in feed consumption per unit of production. A blood test revealed a positive effect on hematopoiesis, in particular, on the formation of red blood cells and general hematopoiesis. In addition, an intensification of protein metabolism was observed. These results indicate a beneficial effect of synbiotic on the general condition and productivity of young pigs.
