Furst-McNess has been a leader in swine nutrition for over 50 years. Long known for a wide range of high-quality products, the product line at Furst-McNess includes complete starters to premixes for the gestating/lactating sows. Through continual commitment to swine nutrition, we offer our customers products that will intensify performance to minimize cost.

Geno-Lean 60/80
Geno-Lean 60/80 is a premix designed as a high nutrient density diet to maximize lean growth. 60/80 is best utilized in the early grower program, but has the flexibility to be included in other feeding stages. By using a variable inclusion rate, this product can work in late nursery grind and mix rations and carries through the final finisher ration if high nutrient density diets are required. This product is also available with lysine added into the premix.

Geno-Lean 50/70
Geno-Lean 50/70 is an excellent standard premix to provide optimal nutrient levels. 50/70 is designed for the late grower/early finisher period, but has the mixing flexibility to balance grower, finisher and sow rations at an economical price. This product is also available with lysine already added.

Geno-Lean 40/60
Geno-Lean 40/60 is a premix best utilized in the late finishing period. 40/60 provides the appropriate levels of nutrients to effectively meet the nutritional needs of finishing pigs. Due to the minimized nutrient levels, this premix helps to reduce waste management concerns and provides an economical alternative to over-fortified premixes. This product is recommended especially for well managed high-tech operations. This product is available with or without lysine.

Phytase 50/40
Phytase 50/40 is a grow/finish premix containing the microbial phytase enzyme to address phosphorus concerns. When included in the diet, the phytase enzyme increases the amount of phosphorus digested by pigs which improves phosphorus utilization in feed (corn and soybean meal) by as much as 35% and reduces inorganic phosphorus needs by 17% or more. This allows for a lower inclusion of premix per ton – allowing for a lower cost complete feed, while at the same time, leading to less phosphorus being applied to cropland. This product may be fed throughout the grower and finisher phases.

GREEN Grower and Finisher
The McNess GREEN premixes are environmentally friendly. In an increased effort to help protect and preserve the soil, this product reduces the amounts of nitrogen and phosphorus that need to be put back on fields, while at the same time helping to control odor. The GREEN premixes provide optimum nutrient levels and include lysine, phytase and Yucca extract to address the concerns or nitrogen, phosphorus and odor.

As explained in the Phytase 50/40 product, phytase helps to improve phosphorus utilization in the swine diet and reduces phosphorus excretion in manure.

Lysine allows a reduction in the protein levels of rations leading to significantly reduced nitrogen excretion.

Yucca extract is a naturally occurring derivative of the yucca schidegera plant. Research has shown that yucca extract helps to reduce the formulation of ammonia and hydrogen sulfide (the significant factors in odor problems) from swine manure, resulting in a better environment for everyone.

The GREEN Grower premix is designed for pigs 50 to 110 pounds. The GREEN Finisher is recommended from 110 to market. The GREEN products can be an important part of your waste management plan.
