Moderately increased energy intake during gestation improves body condition of primiparous sows, piglet growth performance, and milk fat and protein output
2016, Livestock ScienceCitation Excerpt :This is in agreement with the findings of Hoppe et al. (1990), Dourmad (1991), Sinclair et al. (2001), and King et al. (2006). As suggested from Verstegen et al. (1987), Noblet et al. (1990), and Aherne and Williams (1992), a sow must gain 45 kg of total BW throughout pregnancy for at least the first three or four parities, including 25 kg of maternal tissue and 20 kg of conceptus. However, modern genotypes of sows exhibited greater growth, were more fertile, and produced more milk, because of genetic selection for high growth and lean rates (Kim et al., 2013).
