Abstract

Abstract:

This experiment was conducted to study the effect of different patterns of farrowing pens on reproductive performance and stress level of sows，in order to explore a kind of welfare and friendly feeding mode of lactating sows that could be popularized and applied in practical production.Twenty-four hybrid sows (Large White × Landrace) which had same parity，similar pregnancy and body condition were randomly assigned to 3 treatments：farrowing crate＋high bed group (FCB，n=8)，freedom farrowing pen＋high bed group (FFPB，n=8) and freedom farrowing pen＋partially fermented bed surface group (FFPF，n=8).The 7^th day before farrowing，sows were transferred to different patterns farrowing pens.The 21^st day after farrowing，piglets were weaned.The results showed that：1) farrowing time in FFPB and FFPF was significantly lower than in FCB (P＜0.05)；average farrowing interval in FFPB was significantly lower than in FCB (P＜0.05)；the levels of blood plasma oxytocin (OT) and prolactin (PRL) in FFPB showed an increasing trend (P＜0.10).2) The 2^nd day after transferation of sows to farrowing pens，waist surface temperature in FFPB and FFPF was significantly lower than in FCB (P＜0.05).The 7^th day after farrowing，salivary α-amylase (AMY) level in FFPB and FFPF was significantly lower than in FCB (P＜0.05).The 14^th day after farrowing，salivary AMY level in FFPF was significantly lower than in FCB (P＜0.05)，and cortisol (COR) level in FCB showed increasing trend (P＜0.10).These results indicated that：at the day of farrowing，reproductive hormones levels in freedom farrowing pens were increased while farrowing duration and average farrowing interval were reduced.Within 1 to 2 weeks after farrowing，stress level in freedom farrowing pens was obvious decreased，indicating freedom farrowing pens were more close to the welfare and friendly feeding mode of feeding sows.

Key words: farrowing pen, sow, reproductive performance, stress
