| dc.description.abstract | Livestock is very important for Indian economy as well as critical for the welfare of rural population in particular and Indian population in general. The livestock sector contributes to Indian GDP more than 1/3rd of the total share from agriculture. Milk sector in India contributing over 71% if total livestock output followed by meat group. The production of mutton, chevon and beef may not be sufficient to meet the demand because ruminants have slow growth rate with longer generation interval particularly in cattle and buffalo. Among meat producing animals, pigs are important source of animal protein food across the world. According to the estimates of the Central Statistical Organization (CSO) 2007-08, contribution of livestock sector to the national economy is estimated at Rs. 2,40,601 core, constituting 5.21% of total Gross Domestic Product (GDP). The contribution of pork products in terms of value work out to 0.80% of total livestock products and 4.32% of the meat and meat products. Pigs are better than any other livestock species due to high prolificacy, reproductive efficiency, F.C.E and ability to utilize low cost protein source and kitchen waste. In India to make pig farming more profitable, scientist of Birsa Agriculture University has developed a new crossbred variety name Jharshuk. The Productive and reproductive efficiency of Jharshuk pigs were observed to better then desi/local pigs. Considering these facts, the current research work was planned with following objectives – 1. To evaluate the reproductive performance of Jharsuk pig 2. To evaluate production performance of Jharsuk pig 3. To Assess of production potential (up to 3-4 farrowing) of Jharsuk pig 4. To evaluate the effect as litter size on sow & piglets performance 5. To evaluate the survivability of preweaning piglets | en_US |
