Impact of the non castration of male pigs on growth performance and behaviour − comparison with barrows and gilts[swine abstracts]Growth performance, carcass quality, behaviour and general condition of crossbred (Pietrain x Large White) x (Large White x Landrace) boars, barrows and gilts were compared from a batch of pigs fed ad libitum and group‐housed both during the postweaning (eight‐nine pigs/pen) and the fattening (six pigs/pen) periods. Pigs were all slaughtered on the same day. |
Comparison of different antimicrobial sequences on nursery pig performance and economic return[Nutrimail]The use of antibiotics in feed during the nuresery period may improve piglet performance |
Performance of growing–finishing pigs fed diets containing a transgenic wheat, a non-transgenic genetically similar wheat, or conventional wheat varieties[Nutrimail]Pig performance is not affected by the wheat variety used in the growing-finishing diets |
Effect of lecithin with or without chitooligosaccharide on the growth performance, nutrient digestibility, blood metabolites and pork quality of finishing pigs[Nutrimail]The use of lecithin in finishing diets may improve the growth performance of pigs |
Mycotoxin binders and a liquid immunity enhancer: effects on the growth performance of wean-to-finish pigs[Nutrimail]The use of mycotoxin binders on diets with a mycotoxin concentration below the practical quantitation limit does not improve growth performance |
Effects of copper sulfate and zinc oxide on weanling pig growth and plasma mineral levels[Nutrimail]Zinc and copper supplementation of weanling diets improve piglet performance during the nursery period |
An evaluation of peptone as a specialty protein source in diets for nursery pigs[Nutrimail]Protein products from intestinal mucosa may be taken into account as proteins sources for piglet diets |
