High levels of standardized ileal digestible amino acids improve feed efficiency in slow-growing pigs at late grower-finisher stage

Jordi Camp Montoro et al.

Summary: Slow-growing pigs can negatively impact production efficiency and may require higher nutrient levels to achieve similar productive performance compared to fast-growing pigs.

A Meta-Analysis to Understand the Relationship between Pig Body Weight and Variation from Birth to Market

Andres F. Tolosa et al.

Summary: The study found that the coefficient of variation decreases as live weight increases in pigs, while the standard deviation increases. The results can help swine producers predict weight variation within a group of pigs and develop marketing strategies for finishing pigs.
