PHARMA-CORRECTION OF GENERAL RESISTANCE OF PIGLETS IN THE CONDITION OF POSTNATAL PHYSIOLOGICAL IMMATURITY
The method to increase the general resistance and viability of piglets in the condition of physiological immaturity has been developed. The research work was conducted under the conditions of LLC «Krasnogorskaya» pig-breeding complex, Chelyabinsk region. The piglets were obtained from Large White sows inseminated with the sperm of Landrace boars. The experimental groups included postnatal immature piglets of 26-days age, which were kept in the «Pig-Billy» sector for young cattle rearing and fed Vikasolum, Riboflavinum and succinic acid potassium separately or combined. All the preparations were fed as a mixture supplementation to the basic diet. Control observations of animals of all the groups under study were carried out on their 26th, 44th and 47th days of life, when the percent of piglets, which got out of the immaturity state, the piglets’ viability, body weight, absolute live weight gains were determined and blood counts taken. It is ascertained that feeding the succinic acid potassium in the dose of 0.125 g/kg live weight combined with Riboflavinum and Vikasolum in the doses of 2.5mg and 0.3 g per head, daily, results in the normalization of the indices of natural resistance and, hence, contributes to the animals’ viability increase from 39.7 to 93.0% and live weight increase at 42.8%.
