Average daily weight gain of Iberian fattening pigs when grazing natural resources
Livestock Science, 2011Abstract In spite of the growing interest in organic farming and sustainable production, there is a lack of information about the performance of pigs when they feed only on natural resources. This research studied the fattening pattern during the montanera (free-range grazing on acorns and grass during autumn and winter, without any supplementary ...

Heritability estimates for average daily gain and kleiber ratio in deccani sheep
Indian Journal of Small Ruminants (The), 2018To study the factors affecting average daily gain (ADG) and Kleiber ratio (KR) and to estimate the heritability for these traits, data of 1294 Deccani lambs maintained at ICAR-Network Project on Sheep Improvement, MPKV, Rahuri (Maharashtra) were used. The least-squares means for ADG1 (birth to weaning) and ADG 2 (weaning to six months of age) were 123 ...

Effects of Spaying on Average Daily Gain in Implanted Heifers on Pasture
American Association of Bovine Practitioners Conference Proceedings, 2011Pasture grazing of beef feeder cattle destined for subsequent grain-fed feedlot production and slaughter can be a cost-effective production approach for regions with large areas of available pasture, as opposed to dry lot production programs. However, due to reproductive cycling, rates of gain (and presumably grass utilization) for heifers on pasture ...

Association between lean meat percentage and average daily weight gain in Danish slaughter pigs
Preventive Veterinary Medicine, 2011Danish pigs that are within optimal weight limits and have a high lean meat percentage (LMP) obtain the best prices at slaughter. Another reason to consider the variation in LMP is the assumed association between LMP and average daily weight gain (ADG) at the individual level.

Effects of Mosquitoes on the Average Daily Gain of Feedlot Steers in Southern Louisiana
Journal of Economic Entomology, 1972During a 2-year study (1969-70), Psorophora confinnis (Lynch-Arribalzaga), Anopheles quadrimaculatus Say, and A. crucians Wiedemann populations caused statistically significant and economically damaging reductions in the average daily gain of feedlot steers.

Influence of average daily gain of heifers on the age of first insemination
Genetics and breeding of animalsThe purpose of this study is to establish the influence of average daily gain (ADG) of heifers at different periods of their development on the age of 1st insemination (A1ins) at 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18 months and older and milk yield of first-calving cows for 305 days of lactation according to a sample (n=1289) formed from the Seleсs database of ...

Average daily gain of intact and castrated calves during the backgrounding phase
2014El objetivo del estudio fue determinar el impacto de la castración al inicio de la etapa de recría sobre su ganancia diaria de peso. Se utilizaron 20 animales de biotipo cárnico cuyo peso promedio inicial fue de 189,5 kg (± 4,3 EEM). La mitad fue asignada aleatoriamente a uno de los dos tratamientos, que correspondieron a teneros castrados después del ...
