• Finisher Feed

• Layer Feed

KINDS OF FEED

A _____ contains 16% crude protein and 3,200 kilocalories of digestible energy. This is fed to chicks that are 10 weeks of age and pigs that weigh 21 to 59 kilograms.

• Starter Feed

• Grower Feed

• Finisher Feed

• Layer Feed

KINDS OF FEED

This ration contains 14% crude protein with 3,200 kilocalories of digestible energy. This is given to pigs with 60 kilograms weight until it reaches 80 to 90 kilograms which is ready for market sale.

• Starter Feed

• Grower Feed

• Finisher Feed

• Layer Feed

KINDS OF FEED

This ration is specifically designed to provide optimum nutrition for birds laying eggs.

• Starter Feed

• Grower Feed

• Finisher Feed

• Layer Feed

FEEDING METHODS

- The amount of feed given is controlled or limited to a certain amount just to satisfy the appetite of the pig.

- This is done through the use of a long feeding trough where all pigs eat at the same time.

• Restricted feeding

• Ad libitum feeding

• Combination of ad libitum feeding and restricted feeding

FEEDING S

- Feed is available anytime (dry feed should always be used for this feeding method)

- Self-feeders are emptied and cleaned at least once a week to prevent microbial spoilage.

- Continuous supply of fresh clean water is important

• Restricted feeding

• Ad libitum feeding

• Combination of ad libitum feeding and restricted feeding

FEEDING METHODS

- Pigs are fed ad libitum until they reach the weight of 50 kilograms and then fed restricted until they are shipped to the market

• Restricted feeding

• Ad libitum feeding

• Combination of ad libitum feeding and restricted feeding

_____ defines the feed requirement in kg per kg body weight gain. It is an important measure for judging the economic and breeding performance of a fattening pig.

• Feed Conversion Ratio

• Feed Consumption Ratio

• Feed Collection Ratio

• Feed Corruption Ratio

Select the FRC formula

• Feed Conversion Ration = Food consumed (kg) ÷ Gain Weight (kg)

• Feed Conversion Ration = Food consumed (kg) x Gain Weight (kg)

• Feed Conversion Ration = Food consumed (kg) + Gain Weight (kg)

• Feed Conversion Ration = Food consumed (kg) ÷ Gain Weight (kg) + 1.5 kg

_____ is an essential part of any record keeping system. The most common systems are ear notching, tattooing and ear tagging.

• Identification Systems

• Irrigation Systems

• Microsystems

• Surgical Systems
