Valoración de probiótico (lactotech) en el rendimiento productivo de cerdos en la etapa de finalización en la granja Novapork

Abstract

The aim of this study was to evaluate the probiotic Lacotech in the feeding of pigs in the finishing stage at the Novapork farm, in the sector of the toll in the parish of San José of Alluriquín in the canton of Santo Domingo, province of Santo Domingo de los Tsáchilas. The length of the research was 60 days. For the development of the research, 50 pigs of improved breed TN60 x Durock of 120 days of age and the amount of probiotic according the recommendations of the commercial house were used. In the present research, two treatments were carried out; T1 control treatment and T2 control treatment plus probiotic. The results obtained in the research were tabulated in the Excel Office 2016 program and a descriptive statistics technique. Reporting favorable results for each variable with initial weight T1 (75.56 kg) and T2 (82.28 kg), final weight T1 (107.77 kg) and T2 (117.39 kg), daily weight gain T1 (1.17 kg) and T2 (1.07 kg), daily feed intake T1 (2.52 kg) and T2 (2.93 kg), dry matter intake T1 (2.31 kg) and T2 (2.67 kg), feed conversion T1 (2.01) and T2 (2.52), in vitro dry matter digestibility T1 (86.13 %) and T2 (86.92 %), in vitro organic matter digestibility T1 (86.46 %) and T2 (87.65 %), gram positive bacteria T1 (1390 UFC/ml) and T2 (1728 UFC/ml). The improvement of in vitro digestibility of dry matter and organic matter with the control plus probiotic treatment were slightly higher than the results of the control treatment. In vitro dry matter digestibility of the control plus probiotic treatment was 86.92 %. It is recommended to use the probiotic in the feed of pigs in the fattening stage for better productivity.
