For farming purposes, a reliable approach is needed to quantify the effects of temperature and RH on performance of pigs. The aim of this study was to determine the best time period for measurement of temperature and relative humidity for estimating their effects on growth of finishing pigs. | Publication Type: | Conference Publication | Conference Details: | Animal Production 2018: 32nd Biennial Conference of the Australian Society of Animal Production, Wagga Wagga, Australia, 2nd - 4th July, 2018 | Source of Publication: | Animal Production Science, 58(8), p. cxv-cxv | Publisher: | CSIRO Publishing | Place of Publication: | Australia | ISSN: | 1836-5787 1836-0939 |
