Placas refrigerantes para cerdas durante el parto y la lactación
La refrigeración por el suelo se basa en la conducción de calor, mientras el animal está estirado, desde la cerda a una placa que contiene tuberías por las que circula agua fría.

31-ene-2018reinaldo-cubillosDespite this higher intake, sows maintained on a cooled floor had higher body weight and body protein losses during the lactation period (P0.01) in connection with a higher milk yield and subsequent growth of the litter (2280 vs. 1798 g/day; P0.01). There was an effect of treatment on rectal temperature, surface temperatures and respiratory rate (P0.01) with lower values in sows submitted to floor cooling. It is concluded that floor cooling under the lactating sow improves its productive and reproductive performance, as well as the performance of its litter.
