Abstract
The presence of a high proportion of lightweight pigs (< 4.5 kg) at weaning was identified as a problem on a 600-sow farrowing operation. An intervention strategy involving special care pens where underweight pigs were fed milk-replacer and transitioned to a commercial grain-based starter diet was evaluated and found to be of limited benefit.Entities:
