Abstract
The research was conducted under industrial conditions at the breeding enterprise “Verdazernoprodukt” in the Saraevsky district of the Ryazan region on 1380 piglets. All experimental piglets were divided into 2 test groups of 690 individuals each. The piglets in the first experimental group, from the age of 16 days, were orally provided with a feed mixture “Energy” at a dosage of 250 mg/kg of body weight for one month. The piglets in the second experimental group served as the control and received a standard diet typically used at the farm. Positive effects of the adaptogen on the immune system parameters of the piglets during the weaning period were identified. The experiment revealed that administering the tested feed mixture to the weaned piglets during the growing period contributed to the activation of metabolic processes in the body, enhanced natural resistance, improved nutrient absorption, and resulted in higher average daily weight gains.
