Advanced Animal Nutrition for Improved Human Health.
For more than 60 years, Grand Valley Fortifiers has been helping to develop and revolutionize the swine industry. GVF is now actively providing pork producers across Canada and in select U.S. States with advanced animal nutrition products for improved human health. While our range of swine nutrition products is continually updated and improved our goal of enabling producers to obtain the best possible production, at the lowest possible cost, remains the same. Learn more about our swine nutrition products below based upon the production type you prefer.
Conventional Nutrition
BioSure™ Nursery Feeds have been developed to satisfy nursery managers who have a goal to achieve the highest ADG possible while achieving greatly improved feed conversion resulting in low cost/kg of gain in the nursery. Trials in Western Canada demonstrate average daily gains of 189 grams over 11 days, with an impressive feed conversion of 1.04. Improvements in ADG in the first two weeks post-weaning will pay big dividends throughout the lifetime of the pig.
Features & Benefits

In today’s environment it has become imperative that producers know the cost of producing each kg of pork they produce and to utilize this information as they calculate their return on investment.
Realizing that feed costs typically represent 65 percent of the cost of producing each kg of pork, we at Grand Valley Fortifiers are compelled to provide Ontario producers with a record of performance tracking system free of charge.
With the launch of the Grow It & Know It™ program, this important information will is regularly provided to grower/finishers and nursery pig producers, helping them better understand their cost of production. We believe that the advice our Swine Specialists provide and the products we supply will allow you to minimize your costs, resulting in maximum profitability for your operation.
