Evaluation of the causes losses of piglets in two types of farrowing house for sows
Original language description
The aim of this study was to analyse the losses of piglets caused by different factors (due to overlaying, biting and/or other reasons) within the period from birth to weaning, reared with their mothers in different types of housing technology. The experiment involved 90 hybrid sows (Czech Large White x Czech Landrace) housed in two farrowing houses with two different types of technology. One variant (Technology I) was modern and originated from the year 2002 while the other (Technology II) was older (1994). The obtained results indicate that the overlaying was the most significant cause of piglet losses till the age of 7 days. As far as the overlaying as a cause of losses was concerned, there was a highly significant differences between both technologies (P < 0.001) in sows on the 2nd and 3rd litter while on the 4th and 5th litter the differences between both technologies were only significant (P < 0.05). The effect of biting and other causes of losses till the age of 7 days was insig
