Book Synopsis The gestating and lactating sow by : Chantal Farmer
Download or read book The gestating and lactating sow written by Chantal Farmer and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2023-09-04 with total page 452 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The last book on the lactating sow was published over 15 years ago. This new book brings us up to date in current knowledge on the gestating and lactating sow. It covers new and important topics such as conditioning of gilts for optimal reproductive performance, feeding high fibre diets to gestating sows and providing various fat sources in gestation and lactation. It also describes the several key success factors to group-housing systems in gestation, which is a must due to the current move towards group-housing. The new concept of transition feeding for sows is discussed, as well as the factors involved in mammary development of gilts and sows, both of which are instrumental for maximum colostrum and/or milk yields. The impact of the human-animal interactions on sow welfare and performance is discussed with focus on new handling practices that could be developed to overbalance the negative interactions inherent to pig management systems. Updates on must-have topics, such as amino acid and energy requirements of sows, colostrum and milk yield and composition, and sow health are also provided. The subjects covered in this book will assist animal scientists, nutritionists, veterinarians and swine producers in learning the most recent information on relevant and current topics affecting sow production, and in knowing which areas are in need of further research efforts.

Book Synopsis Nutrition of Sows and Boars by : B. Close
Download or read book Nutrition of Sows and Boars written by B. Close and published by Context Products. This book was released on 2000-08-01 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book aims to provide information to allow the development of appropriate feeding strategies for sows and boars. In addition to basic scientific knowledge, practical guidelines and indices of reproduction are given, commensurate with good performance, health and welfare. This comprehensive work will be an invaluable source of reference for students, research scientists, veterinarians and all those engaged in practical pig production. The central role of nutrition in the reproduction of farm animals has long been recognised. In the last two decades there have been considerable advances in our knowledge of sow and boar nutrition which has allowed the development of effective feeding strategies. Such progress will continue in order to meet the demands of ever-increasing product targets.

Book Synopsis Evaluating Nutritional Strategies in the Sow Transition Period to Improve Sow and Litter Performance, Colostrum Yield, and Piglet Survivability by : Kiah Marie Gourley

This book was released on 2020 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Three experiments using a total of 1,325 sows were used to determine the impact of different sow feeding strategies on sow and litter performance. Experiment 1 determined the optimal soybean meal concentration in lactating sow diets using three levels of increasing dietary soybean meal (25, 30, or 35% of total diet). Increasing soybean meal concentration increased sow BW loss and tended to increase sow backfat loss from farrowing to weaning. Sow average daily feed intake (ADFI) decreased linearly as soybean meal concentration increased. Despite the linear response in ADFI, the greatest decrease was observed as soybean meal concentration increased from 30 to 35% of the diet. There was no evidence for difference in wean to estrus interval, or litter performance between dietary treatments. Sow serum urea nitrogen concentrations taken on d 14 of lactation increased as soybean meal concentration increased. Experiment 2 evaluated the duration of feeding increased Lys and energy prior to farrowing on sow and litter performance, piglet survival and colostrum quality in a commercial sow farm. Sows were fed 1 of 3 dietary regimens starting on d 107 of gestation: 1) Control: 2.0 kg/d gestation feed (12.5 g SID Lys and 6.5 Mcal ME) until d 113 of gestation, then 2.7 kg/d lactation feed (28 g SID Lys and 9.4 Mcal ME) until parturition; 2) 2.0 kg/d gestation feed (12.5 g SID Lys and 6.5 Mcal ME) until d 113 of gestation, then 3.8 kg/d lactation feed (40 g SID Lys and 13.3 Mcal ME) until parturition; or 3) 3.8 kg/d lactation feed (40 g SID Lys and 13.3 Mcal ME) until parturition. Increasing the duration of feeding additional Lys and ME increased sow weight and backfat gain from d 106 to 113. Average total born and born alive piglet birth weight (BiWt) was greater in gilts fed 3.8 kg/d lactation diet starting on d 107 or 113 vs. control, with no difference in piglet BiWt in sows or weaning weight in gilts and sows. Piglet mortality after cross-foster to weaning was decreased in sows fed 3.8 kg/d lactation diet starting on d 113 vs. control or increased lactation diet starting on d 107, but not in gilts. Litter gain from cross-foster to weaning was decreased in gilts fed 3.8 kg/d lactation diet starting on d 107 compared to control, with no evidence for difference in sows. Colostrum immunoglobulin G was increased in gilts and sows fed 3.8 kg/d of the lactation diet starting on d 113 compared to control. There was no evidence dietary regimen influenced piglet colostrum intake or colostrum yield, or subsequent reproductive performance. Experiment 3 evaluated the effects of timing and size of meals before farrowing on sow and litter performance under commercial conditions. Sows were fed 1 of 3 feeding management strategies until farrowing: 1) 2.7 kg lactation diet (1.15% standardized ileal digestible lysine and 2,153 Kcal/kg net energy) once daily at 0700 h; 2) 4 daily meals of 0.67 kg (0100 h, 0700 h, 1300 h, 1900 h); 3) ad libitum lactation diet and encouraged to consume feed at 0100 h, 0700 h, 1300 h, and 1900 h. Feeding sows ad libitum before farrowing tended to reduce sow body weight loss and reduce backfat loss from entry into the farrowing house until weaning compared to sows fed 4 daily meals, with sows fed once daily intermediate. Litter gain from 24 h to weaning tended to be greater in sows fed ad libitum or 4 times daily prior to farrowing compared to sows fed one meal. Piglet weaning weight increased in sows fed ad libitum before farrowing, compared to those fed one meal, with those fed 4 times daily intermediate. There was no evidence for difference in farrowing duration, stillborn rate, colostrum yield, or 24 h piglet survival regardless of treatment. However, from 24 h after farrowing to weaning, sows fed one daily meal prior to farrowing had an increased percentage of fall-behind pigs compared to sows fed ad libitum, and increased preweaning mortality compared to sows fed four daily meals, resulting in reduced weaned percentage compared to sows fed four daily meals. There was no difference in subsequent reproductive performance regardless of treatment.

Book Synopsis Feed efficiency in swine by : John F. Patience
Download or read book Feed efficiency in swine written by John F. Patience and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-10-15 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Feed efficiency in swine' has been prepared as a comprehensive treatise on the current state of our understanding of this topic which is so important to the pork industry. Each chapter is written by international authorities who understand both the science and application of their topic area. The book provides detailed insight into the many factors affecting feed efficiency, ranging from diet processing to herd health, from nutrition to physiology and from day-to-day barn management to the adoption of advanced technologies. The authors explain such practical aspects as the challenge of interpreting feed efficiency information obtained on farm or the role of liquid feeding. The authors also delve into more scientific topics such as amino acid or energy metabolism or animal physiology. This book is written for people who have a technical interest in pork production, including nutritionists, geneticists, farm management specialists, veterinarians, other academics and, of course, pork producers.
