Effects of three husbandry systems on health, welfare and productivity of organic pigs
Original language description
Organic pig husbandry systems in Europe are diverse - ranging from indoor systems with concrete outside run (IN) to outdoor systems all year round and combinations of both on one farm . As this diversity has rarely been taken into account in research projects on organic pig production, the aim of this study was to assess and compare pig health, welfare and productivity in these three systems. Animal health and welfare were assessed using direct observation and records of 22 animal-based measures, comprising 17 health-, 3 productivity- and 2 behavioural measures. These were collected in pregnant sows, weaners and fattening pigs during direct observations and from records within a cross-sectional study on 74 farms in eight countries. Overall, prevalence of several animal health and welfare issues was low. Exceptions in particular systems were respiratory problems in weaners and fatteners , weaning diarrhoea, and short tails in fatteners. Total suckling piglet losses (recorded over a period of 12 mont
