2. Rödklöverensilage till suggor : effekter på produktion, reproduktionsorgan, grisningsbeteende och grisningsförlopp
Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Animal Nutrition and ManagementSammanfattning : Målet med studien var att undersöka effekterna av en rödklöverdiet rik på fytoöstrogener på suggor i smågrisproduktion med avseende på produktion (kullstorlek, antal levande födda kultingar, antal dödfödda kultingar, antal stenfoster och kultingarnas födelsevikt), reproduktionsorgan, grisningsförlopp och grisningsbeteende. Totalt ingick 21 renrasiga yorkshiresuggor i studien och delades med hjälp av matchning med avseende på kullnummer och omgång in i två grupper med 12 suggor i kontrollgruppen och 9 suggor i behandlingsgruppen.
