Effect of day of mixing gestating sows on measures of reproductive performance and animal welfare.
Effects of day of mixing sows after breeding were measured for reproduction and welfare on a commercial research farm. Sows (n = 1,436) were weaned into stalls for breeding, and groups of sows were assigned to 1) no mixing and housed in individual stalls (STL), 2) mixed on d 3 to 7 after breeding (D3), 3) mixed on d 13 to 17 after breeding (D14), or 4) mixed 35 d after breeding (D35). Mixed sow...
متن کاملThe effect of feeding level and physiological status on total flow and amino acid composition of endogenous protein at the distal ileum in swine.
An experiment was conducted to investigate the effects of BW, feed intake, and the physiological condition of the animal on the loss and amino acid composition of endogenous protein in swine. Ten growing barrows and five multiparous sows were equipped with a T-cannula in the distal ileum for digesta collection. A protein-free diet was fed to all animals. The barrows were given free access to th...
متن کاملStandardized ileal protein and amino acid digestibility by growing pigs and sows.
Experiments were conducted to determine the effect of the physiological condition of swine on standardized ileal digestibility coefficients (SID). The apparent ileal digestibility coefficients were determined for crude protein and amino acids in six feed ingredients (corn, barley, wheat, soybean meal, canola meal, and meat and bone meal) in growing pigs and in gestating and lactating sows. Grow...
متن کاملEffects of Various Feeding Methods for Gestating Gilts on Reproductive Performance and Growth of Their Progeny*
This study compared the effect of four different feeding methods for gestating gilts on reproductive performance and growth of their progeny. A total of 40 F1 primiparous sows (Yorkshire×Landrace) were allotted to four treatments in a completely randomized design (CRD). For treatments, gestating period of sows was divided into three trimesters (0-35 d, 36-90 d and 91-110 d) and different amount...
متن کاملEffects of supplemental selenium on swine. I. Gestation and lactation.
Effects of two levels of dietary selenium (se) on reproductive performance and blood Se status of mature gestating and lactating sows were evaluated over one reproductive cycle. Four groups of six Duroc sows were fed basal corn-soybean meal (SBM) or corn-SBM-tankage diets each with or without .1 ppm supplemental Se. The basal diets contained .1 ppm natural Se. Changes from the 28th day of gesta...
