Prevention of transport stress in the realization of the adaptive potential of pigs

Abstract

Abstract The article presents the results of research on the realization of the adaptive, productive and reproductive potential of pigs by immunoprophylaxis of transport stress with Pigstim preparations. The transport stress prevention for replacement gilts with immunotropic drugs PigStim-C and PigStim-M contributed to their adaptive and reproductive potential realization by reducing the age of first insemination by 7.7-9.0 days and increasing its fertility, increasing the number of liveborns by 6.8-8.5% and reducing the number of stillborn piglets by 50 and 25%, increasing the viability by 1.72-3.32% and growth rate of piglets during the suckling period by 2.9- 4.0% and reducing the weaning-to-insemination period by 6.4 and 8.5%. The immunoprophylaxis of transport stress in weaned pigs ensured their adaptive and productive potential in long-term growing completion and store feeding period by increasing the live weight of stores by the end of growing completion by 1.66 and 2.55 kg and feeding period by 1.23 and 3.17 kg, reducing the incidence by 5.0 and 4.0% and increasing the viability of the livestock by 2.0%, increasing the effectiveness of therapeutic measures.
