Eatures of metabolism and productivity sows depending on season of the year

Abstract

During the researches it was determined that season of the year definitely influenced the metabolism of pregnant sows and their productivity. The organism is influences not indirectly but via forages. Decrease of feedstuff quality in the storage process (increase of oxidation products concentration and fat hydrolysis, storage of secondary metabolites of molds) decreased productivity of sows (multiple pregnancy, average weight of 1 piglet at birth, litter outcome per 1 farrow), and increased pathology of protein and mineral metabolism.
