Alternative farrowing systems: design criteria for farrowing systems based on the biological needs of sows and piglets [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The construction of a suitable farrowing environment is a continuing dilemma: the piglet's needs must be matched with those of the sow and the farmer during the main phases that constitute farrowing: nest building, parturition and lactation. Difficulties

Farm data analysis for lifetime performance components of sows and their predictors in breeding herds

open access: yesPorcine Health Management, 2020
Our objectives in this review are 1) to define the four components of sow lifetime performance, 2) to organize the four components and other key measures in a lifetime performance tree, and 3) to compile information about sow and herd-level predictors ...
