Description
This comprehensive book is essential reading for all those responsible for the achievement of high levels of output from pig units. Focusing on the complexity of accurately identifying the real causes of performance problems, the book emphasizes the importance of realistically appraising all the available evidence, including pig unit data and observation, before reaching firm conclusions.
The author discusses all the main performance issues that commonly affect pig enterprises?for example, low litter sizes, high levels of stillborn pigs, high post-weaning mortality rates, slow growth rates, low feed intakes, and high feed covnersion ratios. He analyzes each problem in detail at every stage and examines a range of possibilities before guiding the reader toward the most likely cause, and the most approriate course of action.
In the context of general animal health and nutrition, he identifies related issues and recommends when it is appropriate to consult specialists in these fields.
