dc.description.abstractA trial was conducted to assess the growth performance and carcass traits of three-way synthetic (Duroc x (Large White Yorkshire x Landrace) pigs under different management systems. Sixteen weaned piglets were selected and randomly divided into two groups of eight animals each. Piglets in Group I was maintained under intensive system of housing and they were maintained only on farm concentrate. Piglets belonging to Group II, maintained under semi-intensive system of management i.e. allowed for exercise in the closed paddock for two hours daily. There was a significant difference in monthly body weights, average daily gain and feed efficiency. Group II had significantly (P<0.01) higher dressing percentage; lesser back fat thickness and higher gut weight than group I. It was found that allowing for exercise in closed paddock will improve the performance of breeding stock.en_US
