Synopsis

This book on swine production, health, and management offers a comprehensive perspective on the entire process of swine rearing. The authors have provided expert knowledge in all areas. Rearing swine using modern scientific methods can result in significant economic benefits for the owner. To achieve optimum profitable returns, it is essential to have a thorough understanding of management, housing, anatomy and physiology, breeding and reproduction, nutrition and feeding, health and disease, production, products, marketing, and economics. The authors have presented the pig both as an individual unit and as an industry/enterprise. Given the significance of swine in veterinary and animal sciences, this book has been written to provide an academic, scientific, and field-oriented approach, making it suitable for the needs of academicians, scientists, students, field practitioners, and general readers. The book also includes newer aspects of swine husbandry, along with suggested reading references for further exploration.
