The effects of feeding 2 ppm supplemental folic acid (FA) on fetal survival and development were assessed in sows (n = 32). Number of live fetuses and fetal survival at day 45 +/- 3 of gestation was not influenced by FA. Fetal pig weight, length, protein and RNA content were increased (P < 0.05) with FA treatment, suggesting enhanced development of embryo/fetal tissues with maternal FA supplementation.
