Previous articles in this series have provided an overview of producing&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.porkbusiness.com\/news\/hog-production\/benefits-quality-weaned-pig\">quality weaned pigs<\/a>, as well as the importance of&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/genus-develop.go-vip.co\/pic\/2020\/12\/22\/producing-a-quality-weaned-pig-focus-on-health\/\">health<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/genus-develop.go-vip.co\/pic\/2021\/08\/10\/producing-a-quality-weaned-pig-focus-on-consistency\/\">consistency <\/a>and&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.porkbusiness.com\/news\/hog-production\/emphasize-good-health-management-improve-thriftiness\">thriftiness<\/a>. No less critical is determining a good combination of age and weight to maximize a weaned pig\u2019s potential. While weaning weight and age may vary from operation to operation, years of research and on-farm evaluations have identified benchmarks that producers can use.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cA number of studies have given us guidance on weight of the pig at birth and at weaning, depending on the number of nursing days,\u201d says Joe Connor, DVM. \u201cA heavier weight pig at birth will result in a heavier weight pig at weaning and a heavier weight pig at slaughter. Most studies indicate that a 1 lb. heavier pig at weaning is a minimum of 2 lbs. at the end of the nursery period and between 4 lbs. and 8 lbs. at the end of the harvest period for the same number of grow days.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cPiglet weight is marginally inversely related to the number of total-born pigs in the uterus,\u201d Connor says. \u201cGenerally, as total born increases, there\u2019s a slight decrease in individual birth weights and more variation of birth weights. We have to accept that having a high total born average is outstanding because it still outweighs any reduction in individual birth weights or increase in variation.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Genetic Selection<\/strong><br>Two critical components to producing a quality weaned pig are the genetic selection of the sow to create a favorable environment for her litter, and mothering ability, says Lindsay Case, Key Account Director in Canada and previous PIC Genetics Services Manager for North America and Latin America.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWhen we look at what makes a successful sow, it\u2019s not just total born \u2013 it\u2019s also about her ability to give birth to high-quality piglets with heavy birthweights,\u201d Case says (see Chart 1). \u201cIn addition, mothering ability includes her ability to successfully wean as many piglets as possible. This is achieved by creating a favorable environment within the farrowing crate and through her ability to milk those piglets really well.&nbsp;<br><br><br><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\"  alt=\"Chart 1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/cdn.farmjournal.com\/s3fs-public\/inline-images\/Genetic%2520Improvmeent%2520for%2520Total%2520Born%2520and%2520BW.png?w=550&#038;ssl=1\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cFrom the weight component, it\u2019s about how well the sow can put weight on each of the piglets in the litter to maximize the number of pounds of weaned pig she produces from each turn of the farrowing crate,\u201d Case adds.&nbsp;<br><br>\u201cImprovements on litter birthweight and within-litter variation are key for sustainable weaned pig quality,\u201d says Sergio Canavate, PIC technical services director &#8211; applied female reproduction. \u201cWe are seeing a significant increase in the number of pigs born per litter in the last 5 years, along with improvement on the quality of pigs being born (in terms of weight and vitality). If we are able to increase piglet weight plus increase the percentage of piglets being born that weigh more than 2 or 3 pounds, that will give us better potential to wean a quality pig.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Health<\/strong><br>There\u2019s a direct correlation between health, weight and age, says Connor. It starts pre-farrowing, with the necessary vaccinations and natural exposure of the sow to stimulate colostrum antibodies that the pig will absorb.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe primary source of a respiratory infection of the pigs is generally through direct transmission (nose-to-nose or saliva),\u201d he says. \u201cIf the piglet is not infected during in utero transmission, then colostrum will do an excellent job of protecting that pig for a period of time, but antibody concentration decreases as the pig ages. The half-life of most antibodies is between 14 and 21 days. As the pig gets older (greater than 21 days) antibodies wane and the piglet will not have the same antibody protection as a 1-day-old pig.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cA critical component of health management is to achieve the wean age that will give the highest weight per day of age for the lactating performance of the sow and allow that pig to suckle long enough that the maternal antibodies have not declined past the threshold of pig-to-pig transmission,\u201d he adds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sick pigs don\u2019t nurse well, notes Case, which means they\u2019re not getting up and grabbing a teat.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThey\u2019ll have reduced nutrient intake and they won\u2019t meet the weight goals we\u2019ve established compared to a healthier farrowing-crate environment,\u201d she says. \u201cA sick piglet will struggle to show its full genetic potential for quality weaned pig characteristics. We know there\u2019s a correlation between a pig that fails to get off to a strong a start in the grow-finish phase, and the same pig that was struggling from a health standpoint at weaning.<br>&nbsp;<br>\u201cHealth is one of the fundamental pillars that has to be maintained in the sow farm,\u201d Case says. \u201cIt\u2019s almost a minimum hurdle for the piglet to overcome to be able to express its full genetic potential.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Gilt acclimation is a key factor in producing a quality weaned pig, says Canavate. \u201cGilts are a na\u00efve population \u2013 they\u2019re going to a sow farm that has its own environment. We want gilts to be acclimated before they\u2019re bred because the offspring from gilts are more susceptible to disease.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe second key is biosecurity, to protect the farm against any threat that can impact performance,\u201d Canavate adds. \u201cWe need to make sure farrowing rooms are disinfected and properly cleaned to minimize scours that would impact the pig quite a bit. All procedures for room preparation are also critical.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The Right Facilities<\/strong><br>Facility design and cost are factors, too, Connor adds because as nursing days increase, farrowing crate turns decrease.&nbsp;<br><br>\u201cYou reach an inflection point where the increased weight of the pig for each nursing day is of less value than turning the farrowing crate,\u201d he says.<br><br>The type of facilities on a farm may determine age and weight at weaning, too, says Fernando Gomez, PIC wean-to-finish technical services director. Gomez, a native Chilean, worked in PIC\u2019s Latin market in commercial, technical and export positions.&nbsp;<br><br>\u201cIt\u2019s a cost-benefit decision,\u201d Gomez says. \u201cLet\u2019s say we\u2019re weaning at 18 days of age \u2013 we may not have facilities that are prepared to receive those young pigs, or there may be too much age variation. If we\u2019re working with younger piglets, we might not be receiving the benefits compared to pigs that are 24 days old.\u201d<br><br>Also, younger pigs require a higher level of management, he points out. Temperature, nutrition, management and overall care are higher priorities.&nbsp;<br>\u201cIf we don\u2019t have those parameters in place, it may be better to increase weaning age,\u201d he says.<br><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Consistently weaning quality pigs is no simple task.
