  • Growth of piglets in relation to milk intake and anatomical location of mammary glands
    Skok, Janko ; Brus, Maksimiljan ; Škorjanc, Dejan
    The quantity of milk consumed by piglets was estimated with the aid of the 'weigh-suckle-weigh' method. During the four weeks of lactation was closely observed the changes in the quantity of milk ... taken in by pigltes with respect of the defined area of the mammary complex (anterior (A), middle (M) and posterior (P)). Daily milk production was estimated, and comparison was made netween the growth, rate of the piglets and their weight (light, heavy(). The sows (Landrace X Large White) with their suckled litters (9.8+1.9 piglets) were evaluated in the study. There were no significant differences between theA and M areas in the quantity of milk consumed by the piglets, yet both areas different significantly from the P area (p<0.05). During the entire period of lactation, piglets that suckled at the cranial (A and M area) teats took in more milk and consequently achieved higher daily weight gain than the piglets posotioned in the P area. The body mass growth of piglets was positively and significatly correlated with gland milk yield during lactation stages (p<0.05).
