Effect of boars on reproductive parameters in sows, losses of piglets and birth weight of piglets

Original language description

The aim of this study was to evaluate effect of boars on reproductive performance in sows, birth weight of piglets and losses of piglets from birth to weaning. Effect of three different boars marked A (Large White - sire line x Pietrain), B (Large White - sire line x Duroc) and C (Duroc) was observed. No statistically significant differences were found between the evaluated boars and their effect on reproductive performance and losses of piglets. Evaluation of boars&apos; effect on birth weight of piglets revealed statistically significant differences (P LESS-THAN OR EQUAL TO 0.05) between mean birth weight of piglets from the boar A (1.33 kg) and mean birth weight of piglets from the boar B (1.28 kg) and between the birth weight of gilts from the boar A (1.39 kg) and the birth weight of gilts from the boar B (1.23 kg). Another statistically significant difference (P LESS-THAN OR EQUAL TO 0.05) was found between the birth weight of gilts from the boar B (1.23 kg) and the birth weight of gilts from the boar C (1.42 kg). The values of mean birth weight of piglets from the boar B (1.28 kg) and mean weight of piglets from the boar C (1.45 kg) were highly significantly different (P LESS-THAN OR EQUAL TO TO 0.01). Also the difference between the birth weight of gilts from the boar B (1.23 kg) and birth weight of boars from the boar C (1.48 kg) was highly statistically significant (P LESS-THAN OR EQUAL TO 0.01). The results document that the evaluated boars have a comparable effect on reproductive performance in sows and losses of piglets, on the contrary, the effect on birth weight of piglets was significantly different among the observed boars.
