A Short Period of Darkness after Mixing of Growing Pigs Intended for PDO Hams Production Reduces Skin Lesions

, 2020
Agonistic behavior after the regrouping of unfamiliar pigs has been recognized as one of the major welfare issues for pig husbandry, as it may result in lesions, lameness, and health problems. One scarcely investigated strategy to curb agonistic behavior

BONE STRENGTH OF DIFFERENT PIGS GENETIC TYPES [PDF]

, 2010
The aim of this study was to evaluate the bone strength in different genetic types of pigs. Nowadays, in swine production it is rather common to obtain pigs with weak bones, especially on the hind legs.

Study on the rhythm of thermoregulation of growing pigs housed individually within humid and warm environment

浙江大学学报. 农业与生命科学版, 2004
4 growing pigs with same weight and breed used were housed individually at thermoneutral environment. One week later, two of these pigs were reared individually in humid and warm environment and the effects of such environment on the rhythm of core body ...

Effects of 25(OH)VD₃ on Growth Performance, Pork Quality and Calcium Deposit in Growing-Finishing Pigs

, 2022
The study was conducted to evaluate the effects of 25(OH)VD3 with different inclusion levels of 0, 25, 50 and 75 μg/kg in the diet on growth performance, nutrient digestibility, bone properties and pork quality in growing-finishing pigs.

Improving the estimation of amino acid requirements to maximize nitrogen retention in precision feeding for growing-finishing pigs

Animal, 2020
Precision feeding requires a mathematical model to estimate standardized ileal digestible (SID) lysine (Lys) requirements (SIDLysR) in real time. However, this type of model requires constant calibration updates. The objective of this study was to review

Pig performance increases with the addition of DL-methionine and L-lysine to ensiled cassava leaf protein diets [PDF]

, 2011
Two studies were conducted to determine the impact of supplementation of diets containing ensiled cassava leaves as the main protein source with synthetic amino acids, dl-methionine alone or with L-lysine.

Gestating sows exhibit greater ileal amino acid digestibility of corn distillers grains, rapeseed meal, and cottonseed meal than growing pigs, but not soybean meal

Animal
Precise measurement of ileal amino acid digestibility in feed ingredients is vital for optimising sows’ nutrient requirements and feed utilisation. We hypothesised that the ileal amino acid digestibility of feed ingredients for swine, which usually are ...

The effects of dietary fat supplementation on grower/finisher pig performance and digestibility [PDF]

, 2010
Cereals have traditionally been used in the pig industry as the main source of energy in pig diets. However, due to variable composition, differences in nutritive value between cereal types and the availability and price of cereals, alternative sources ...

Impact of dietary enzyme complex on growth performance, nutrient digestibility and fecal noxious gas emissions in growing pigs

Indian Journal of Animal Sciences, 2016
Growing pigs (180, Yorkshire-Landrace × Duroc) with an average body weight (BW) of 26.40 ± 2.29 kg were used in a 6-week study to evaluate the effect of dietary enzyme complex on growth performance, nutrient digestibility, and fecal noxious gas emission
