The study was undertaken on a total of 600 animals comprising of 170 Duroc, 230 Hampshire and 200 H.S. x Ghungroo pigs maintained at National Research Centre on Pig, ICAR, Rani, Guwahati, Assam in duration of 2007 to 2011 with a objective to study the growth performance in terms of body weight gains in preweaning stage. The preweaning growth is very important in case of pig production. The overall Least squares means for body weight for all the breeds at 0 days,15 days, 30 days and 45 days of age was 3.568 ± 0.230, 15.04 ± 0.22, 350.11±0.01 and 980.14±1.33kg respectively. The overall growth rate in 0-15 days, 15-30 days and 30-45 days were found to be 0.024±0.002, 0.579±0.002 and 1.599± 0.006 gm/ day respectively. The birth weight in case of Duroc is highest (1.367±0.024) followed by Hampshire (1.279±0.016) and crosses between Hampshire and Ghungroo (1.117±0.021) maintained in the farm. For 15 days body weight shows similar records in Duroc (4.036±0.051) and Hampshire (4.011±0.036) and slightly lower records in Crossbreds (3.555±0.05). For 30 days body weight Duroc (7.698±0.09) shows highest records followed by Crossbreds (5.757±0.61) and Hampshire (5.699±0.05). For 45 days body weight Duroc (12.467±0.21) shows highest records followed by Hampshire (7.965±0.04) and Crossbreds (7.281±0.07). Not Available |
