Effect of compatibility of mixed parent pairs on heightening productivity of pigs

Abstract

The purpose. To assess productive qualities of pigs and to determine effect of compatibility of mixed parent pairs. Methods. Practical standards of assessment of productivity of pigs. Effect of compatibility based on I.P. Sheiko’s procedure. Results. It is fixed that the least width of fat (15,75 mm) and the greatest area of “muscle eye» (42,65 cm) has pigs of combination ♀(Vb×L) × × ♂(P×D). The greatest effect of compatibility was in bunch ♀(Vb×L) x ♂(D×P) (138,87 %). Conclusions. According to feeding attributes and indexes of index assessment pigs of genotype ♀(Vb×L) x ♂(D×P) were selected. According to slaughter qualities the best were animals from group ♀(Vb×L) × ♂(P×D).
