Eighty-three swine females were inseminated with semen from three boars, diluted in Beltsville Thawing Solution (BTS), Modified-Zorlesco (ZOR) and BTZOR (a medium developed at Universidade Estadual de Maringá). Twenty eight females were inseminated with BTS, 28 with ZOR and 27 with BTZOR, with the objective to evaluate the indexes of heat return and farrowing rate, and the averages numbers of born piglets and born alive piglets from the inseminated females. The females inseminated with ZOR showed the best farrowing rate […]
