Is sow productivity an important criterium?
Porc Magazine 2003 avril: 62-64
The relationship between production cost and product in swine operation is well-established. While increasing the number of pigs produced by sows, the herd manager increases its product and reduces its production cost. However, a survey of 300 herds showed that only a quarter of these herds had achieved a low production cost (inferior to the mean production cost:1,363?/kg of carcass). Sow productivity is a variable factor which is correlated to the production cost and helps reduce this cost. In 2002, a herd manager was able to release a surplus of 53? on gross margin on feed cost if he had one more pig produced per sow.
