Factors influencing the assessment of rate and feed efficiency of growth in Yorkshire swine : the influence of energy limitations and hypoferrous anemia on pre-weaning and post-weaning growth rate, post-weaning growth rate and efficiency of feed conversion

The present thesis is a study of the factors that affect the assessment of rate and efficiency of gain in Yorkshire swine in the pre and post-weaning stages of growth. Calculations from metabolism data for growing swine and measurement of the milk production of Yorkshire sows were used to demonstra...
