Feeding behavior of growing-finishing pigs reared under precision feeding strategies.
The feeding behavior of growing-finishing pigs reared under precision feeding strategies was studied in 35 barrows and 35 females (average initial BW of 30.4 ± 2.2 kg) over 84 d. Five different feeding programs were evaluated, namely a conventional 3-phase program in which pigs were fed with a constant blend of diet A (high nutrient density) and diet B (low nutrient density) and 4 daily phase-f...
متن کاملBehavior of Pigs Reared in Enriched Environment: Alternatives to Extend Pigs Attention
Three trials were carried out in a completely randomized design aiming to assess the behavior of pigs in growth phase in enriched environments. Trial 1 evaluated the effects of frequency of availability of environmental enrichment. The animals were assigned to four treatments: 1) control with no enrichment object; 2) objects provided for six consecutive days uninterruptedly; 3) objects provided...
متن کاملCytogenetic Studies in Crossbred Pigs
Karyological investigation pertaining to 30 crossbred pigs (both sexes) maintained at AICRP, Tirupati was undertaken in order to study the chromosomal profile of the crossbred pigs and their morphometric measurements. The cells had the usual diploid complement of 38 chromosomes (2n = 38) and a fundamental number of 64 as in the exotic pigs with XY complement in males and XX complement in female...
متن کاملNutritional impact on health and performance in intensively reared rabbits.
The present work summarizes research related to the definition of nutrient recommendations for feeds used in the intensive production of rabbit's meat. Fibre is the main chemical constituent of rabbit diets that typically contain 320 to 360 and 50 to 90 g/kg of insoluble and soluble fibre, respectively. Instead, the dietary contents of cereal grains (~120 to 160 g/kg), fat (15 to 25 g/kg) and p...
متن کاملReproductive performance in pigs reared under organic conditions compared with conventionally reared pigs
BACKGROUND To achieve a competitive reproductive performance in organic pig farming is a major challenge for this farming practise. Practices and research data regarding conventional pig production are not always applicable to organic production, why field studies are needed to identify differences in performance between organic and conventional pig farms in order to identify areas for improvem...
