NUTRITION AND FEEDING Flashcards
Physiological states requiring nutrients
- Maintenance
- Growth
- Fattening
- Reproduction
- Lactation
Nutrients classified as?
-Energy Nutrients
-Nutrients for tissue building, maintenance, and repair
-Nutrients for regulation of metabolic body processes
When the animal neither gaining nor losing weight
Maintenance
when tissue synthesis takes place in the young animal
Growth
when increased fat deposition becomes desirable
Fattening
when there is an increased for nutrients in ova/sperm production for fetal development in the geststing female
Reproduction
when the dam requires extra nutrients to sustain the production of milk for her litter without sacrificing her body reserves
Lactation
Example of Energy nutrients
Carbohydrate, fat, and proteins.
Example for butrinets for tissue building, maintenance and repair
Protein, minerals, and water
example for nutrients regulation of metabolic body processes
Water, proteins, fats, mineral and vitamins
How many elements of minerals required for Pigs?
Calcium (CA)
Chlorine (CI)
Copper (Cu)
Iodine (I)
Iron (Fe)
Magnesium (Mg)
Melenium (Mn)
Phosphorus (P)
Potassium (K)
Selenium (Se)
Sodium (Na)
Sulfur (Su)
Zinc (Zn)
Are organic compounds distinct from amino acid, carbohydrates and lipids
Vitamins
These are need in very small amounts, but are necessary for growth and production
Vitamins
2 classification in Vitamins
Fat soluble and water soluble
Act as coenzyme in carbohydrstes, fat, and protein metabolism
B-compled Vitamins
it is not a dietary requirement because pig can synthesize it
Vitamin C
antimicrobial agents that commonly added to swine diets to improve weight gains, feen conversion efficiency, and reproduction
- reduce the morbidity and mortality
Feed additves
It must be Approved by the Food and Drug Administration before adding to the feeds
Feed additives
Swine belong to what species
Monogastric ( simple stomach) species
2 types of feed ingredients
Basal or energy feeds
Protein feeds
are superior to plant protiens because it has a hogh essential of amino acid, but expensive
Animal protein
Type of feed processing
Cooking
Grinding
Pelleting
added to swine diets before farrowing to increase the milk (colostrum)
Fat
In what day we could allow the sows to have a full feeding
4th and 5th day
what is the average litter of milk produce by the sow per day
7.5 - 9.5 litter per day
average pre weaning weight
5.5 kg LW
at seven days the piglets only utilize _ and _ , those aging 7-10 days utilize _ and _
Glucos and lactose
Fructose and sucrose
Requirements in Housing and Equipment
Avoid sunlight
must be in East - West direction
Slow air velocity
Blower fans with flexible ducts
Install Sprinkle nozzle system
Reduce the heat load to reach the animals
Roof
commonly used materials in roofing
Galvanized iron sheet and heat insulators
the color of the roof outside must be__ and the inside is __
Light colored and Dark colored
Housing system in scmall scale operation
conventional all purpose housing system
medium scale operation housing system
Life cycle housing system
types of life cycle housing system
Pregestation and Boar Unit
Gestation Unit
Farrowing and Nursery Unit
Grower- Finishing
the best waste management principle
Waste management Hierarchy
