Publication Date: | 2001 | Handle Link: | https://hdl.handle.net/1959.11/10401 | Abstract: | Individual feed intake data were recorded using electronic feeders for 278 animals in a commercial group-housed environment. A reduction in feed intake compared to the expected was observed. Factors influencing this reduction in feed intake are described. Recommendations are made for using these factors in the operation of electronic feeders to minimise the reduction in feed intake. | Publication Type: | Conference Publication | Conference Details: | AAABG 2001: 14th Conference of the Association for the Advancement of Animal Breeding and Genetics, Queenstown, New Zealand, 30th July - 2nd August, 2001 | Source of Publication: | Proceedings of the Association for the Advancement of Animal Breeding and Genetics, v.14, p. 369-372 | Publisher: | Association for the Advancement of Animal Breeding and Genetics (AAABG) | Place of Publication: | Armidale, Australia | ISSN: | 1328-3227 | Fields of Research (FoR) 2008: | 070201 Animal Breeding | Socio-Economic Objective (SEO) 2008: | 830308 Pigs | Peer Reviewed: | Yes | HERDC Category Description: | E1 Refereed Scholarly Conference Publication | Publisher/associated links: | http://www.aaabg.org/livestocklibrary/2001/ab01087.pdf |
