An experiment using 60 pigs (½ males and ½ females) was carried out to evaluate the effects of the type of pens floor on the performance and carcass traits of growing-finishing pigs (33 – 84 kg). The pigs were allotted to a randomized block design, with two treatments, tree or two pigs per experimental units (EU), 12 EU per treatment and 30 pigs per treatment. They were housed in pens of 8m2 (2.0 x 4.0 m), allotted to two treatments: […]
