Industrial crossbreeding in pig production

The monograph for the first time scientifically substantiates the method of using boars of the Pietren breed in the selection process of breeding pigs of the Belarusian black-and-brown breed and the system of hybridization in the production of pork on an industrial basis through the creation of animals of new genotypes (1/2BCh1/2P and 3/4BCh1/4P), which have increased meatiness, good reproductive, fattening qualities and stress-resistant in the conditions of industrial technology. The use of boars of Pietren breed in combination with animals of Belarusian black-breed allows to offer production of pigs with increased meat (meat yield 58,52-61,68 %) and fattening qualities (feed consumption per unit of gain 2,9-3,6 feed units). The publication is recommended for agricultural specialists, researchers and students of higher educational institutions. Usl. pec. l. 11,6.
