Increasing productivity in swine farming
The purpose of the experiment was to determine the most profitable way to use
the bioproduct BIOCHLOFEEDⓇ to increase the productivity of swine farming.
The objectives of the experiment included:
- To determine the effect of the bioproduct BIOCHLOFEEDⓇ on relative weight gain in piglets;
- To determine the effect of the bioproduct BIOCHLOFEEDⓇ on feed conversion for piglets;
- To determine the effect of the bioproduct BIOCHLOFEEDⓇ on the general physiological condition of piglets.
Description of the experiment
The effect of the bioproduct BIOCHLOFEEDⓇ on relative weight gain was studied on calves of the Large White swine breed. The experiment lasted 150 days.
Piglets of both groups received a basic diet, the energy and nutritional value of which corresponded to generally accepted standards. In addition to the feed ration, the piglets of the experimental group were given the bioproduct BIOCHLOFEEDⓇ at the rate of 125 ml/head per day throughout the experiment.
During the experiment, live weight, average daily growth of weaned piglets, livestock safety, and feed costs per unit of production were taken into account.
Option one (Control):
50 piglets aged 135 days were selected for the control group.
Option two (Experimental):
50 piglets aged 135 days were selected for the experimental group.
Average live
weight
At the beginning of the experiment, the average live weight of 1 piglet in the control group was 42.4 kg, in the experimental group - 42.2 kg. At the end of the experiment, the average live weight of 1 swine in the control group was 108.7 kg, in the experimental group - 129.5 kg.
Impact on the
safety of piglets
The use of the bioproduct BIOCHLOFEEDⓇ had a positive effect on the survival rate of piglets. During the
experiment, 3 piglets died in the control group, and none in the experimental group. The safety of piglets in the control group was 94%, in the experimental group - 100%.
Physiological
condition of piglets
At the end of the experiment, the piglets in the experimental group were in better physiological
condition than the piglets in the control group: their vitality increased, their immunity
strengthened, and there was no need for veterinary medications.
Main conclusions:
Thus, the use of bioproduct BIOCHLOFEEDⓇ in swine farming allows:
- Increase live weight gain by 32% or more;
- Increase the survival rate to 100%;
- Reduce the feed ratio by 33% or more;
- Reduce the feed ratio by 33% or more;
- Improve the general physiological condition of swines.
