Different feeding levels during wean-to-estrus and first week of gestation of sows
Outcomes of gestation length in relation to farrowing performance
How efficient are the current hyper-prolific lactating sows? (1/2)
The study described here was designed to determine if the body tissue mobilization during lactation imposed by feed restriction could affect litter size and sow performance in the subsequent lactation.
Factors for improving reproductive performance of sows and herd productivity in commercial breeding herds
Comparing gestating sows housing between electronic sow feeding system and a conventional stall
Feeding level during gestation affects farrowing and litter performance
Palygorskite dietary supplementation effects on back fat mobilization, leptin levels and oxidative stress in sows
Clinical case: Increase of returns in summer and low annual prolificacy
The farm reports a problem of low prolificacy (mean annual live births of 11.91) and low fertility in summer, with a marked increase in acyclic returns.
Relationships between ovulation rate and embryonic and placental characteristics in multiparous sows at 35 days of pregnancy
Observations of sows and piglets housed in farrowing pens with temporary crating or farrowing crates on a commercial farm
Essential fatty acid supplementation during lactation is required to maximize the subsequent reproductive performance of the modern sow
Is body condition the right tool to adjust feeding in pregnant sows?
Energy intake based on body condition differs greatly from the energy adult sows require. Moreover, the NRC clearly overestimates the sows' maintenance requirements.
