Q.) Paragraph on Swine: 
Pigs are an important form of livestock that adapt greatly to any 
system and their production is mainly undertaken on larger 
farms. Efficient management of the animals of all age groups in 
such extensive setup holds the key to economic profitability. A 
fundamental key in swine production is the pregnant sow. Good 
management of the pregnant sows ensures better reproductive 
performance. One of the management aspects apart from the 
 
 
 
 
components of nutrition, heat detection and pregnancy 
diagnosis is the management of farrowing. Pregnancy in sows is 
sustained by high levels of progesterone produced by corpora 
lutea which remain the sole source of progesterone throughout 
the gestation period. A normal gestation length in sows ranges 
________ days, with 10% __________resulting before ______ 
and 25% after ______ days of gestation. The _________ process 
lasts 3 to 5 hours with a piglet being born every 15 to 30 minutes. 
 
Induction of parturition is a common practice in modern sow 
herds which results in the synchronization of farrowing.  In sow 
herds where insemination time differs, the time of farrowing will 
also differ resulting in difficulty in supervision during farrowing. 
With the induction of parturition, this variation can be narrowed 
to allow better supervision. Induced farrowing is a tool in 
parturition management of sow herds that is much beneficial at 
farm level. A synchronized farrowing process performed under 
supervision will ensure better health status of the sows and 
piglets. 
 
Q.1) What is gestation period in swines? 
 
Ans. 114 days 
 
Q.2) What is parturition process in Swine called? 
 
Ans. Farrowing  
 
Q.3) The parturition in swine takes place at what time of the day?

Q.) Paragraph on Poultry: 
This is the most intensive type of poultry production and is useful 
to those with only a small quantity of floor space at their disposal. 
In the battery system each hen is confined to a cage just large 
enough to permit very limited movement and allow her to stand 
and sit comfortably. The usual floor space is ___1___ inches and 
the height, 17 inches. The floor is of standard strong galvanised 
wire set at a slope from back to the front, so that the eggs as they 
are laid, roll out of the cage to a receiving gutter. Underneath is 
a tray for droppings. Both food and water receptacles are outside 
the cage. 
 
Many small cages can be assembled together, if necessary it may 
be multi-storied. The whole structure should be of metal so that 
no parasites will be harboured and thorough disinfection can be 
carried out as often as required. Provided the batteries of cages 
are set up in a place which is well ventilated, and lighted, is not 
too hot and is vermin proof and that the food meets all 
nutritional needs, this system has proved to be remarkably 
successful in the tropical countries. It requires a minimum 
expenditure of energy from the bird as they spend all time in the 
shade. It lessens the load of excess body heat. The performance 
of each bird can be noted and culling easily carried out. Pullets 
which can be used more often than birds of over ___2____should 
be placed in the cages at least ___3___before they are expected 
to lay.
