At Devenish, we specialise in diet formulation and the custom manufacture of trace elements and vitamin premixes to suit the individual requirements of our customers. These premixes also contain a range of our speciality feed additives to target specific challenges. 

We recognise that producers have individual needs and that the requirements of growing and finishing pigs and sows differ from unit to unit depending on genetics, environment, disease status, and management.

Our team of dedicated Pig Nutritionists have real practical experience of how diet can impact on pig performance, health and welfare. Our specialist DeviCare Programme is a concept that has been developed for the intensive pig sector and involves producing animals more efficiently, whilst also minimising the effect of intensive pig production on the environment. DeviCare® has been developed through over 20 years of intensive research resulting in a targeted nutritional package. This package involves: 

• Formulation service and ingredients package customised for individual farms.
• More efficient and profitable production.
• Maximise nutrient utilisation at farm level for environmental benefit. 

Our nutritional knowledge and expertise have been developed through a combination of institutional and on-farm research which makes it highly applicable to practical pig production. The primary objective of the research is to maximise the profitability of animal production to ensure the commercial viability of our customers.

The DeviCare® concept is described as targeted nutrition as it involves customising the nutrient makeup of the pig's diet to suit the genetic potential of the animals and consequently, a more efficient method of production is put in place.
