Circadian rhythms and diurnal patterns in the feed intake behaviour of growing-finishing pigs
The feeding behaviour of growing-finishing pigs is an important indicator of performance, health and welfare, but this use is limited by its large, poorly-understood variation.

Influence of the form and level of organic versus inorganic copper and zinc in diets for growing and finishing pigs [PDF]
Pharmacological levels of inorganic forms of copper (Cu) and zinc (Zn) are frequently used in diets for pigs to improve performance and control post-weaning colibacillosis. However, the use of such forms and levels causes mineral accumulation in the soil,

Conventional and deep-litter pig production systems: the effects on fat deposition and distribution in growing female large white X landrace pigs [PDF]
Minimising variability in carcass quality to better meet market specifications is a priority for Australian pig producers, however issues with variability in carcass fat distribution have recently been raised, particularly in the belly primal.
