Reproduction
Boar Produces spermFertilizes the egg
Sow Produces the eggCarries the litters

Swine Reproduction
•EstrusThe period of time a
sow is receptive to the male for breeding purposes
Comes every 21 daysLast for 3 daysOvulation (egg
production) occurs
![Page 19: Swine (Pig) Production](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081502/5681634a550346895dd3dba7/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Swine Reproduction
•FertilizationThe period of
time in which the sperm actually unites with the eggs
Multi-fertilization which causes multi-pig litters

Feeds & Feeding
•Swine for pork
50 to 70 % of total production cost
Use a good commercial brand name feed
In General an animal will eat 3% of its body weight
Protein is the Key feed element
