The results of the study of the reserves to increase the productivity of pigs in the fattening period due to the optimization of their keeping conditions have been presented in the article.

On the basis of analogues, seven groups of hybrid young pigs at the age of four months combining Large white×Landrace×Duroc breeds have been selected for the experiment. The feeding conditions for all the experimental groups were the same and consistent with the standards of Agricultural Research Institute, while the keeping conditions were different. During the fattening period from 4 to 7 months the pigs of the first group were kept in 2 heads, of the second group in 4 heads, of the third group in 6 heads, of the fourth group in 8 heads, of the fifth group in 10 heads, of the sixth group in 20 heads and of the seventh group in 30 heads in one crate. The research was conducted on the basis of the subsidiary enterprise “National Plus” of Ltd.“National” of Dnipropetrovsk region.

Based on the studies, it was found that the growth of pigs on fattening was significantly affected by the size of groups, i.e. the number of animals in one crate. With an increase in the number of pigs in one feeding crate from 2 heads to 4; 6; 8; 10; 20; 30, their growth from 4 to 7 months is reduced respectively by 3.5; 5.3; 7.2; 11.3; 16.8%, and the cost price of 1 centner of live weight gain increases respectively by 2.6; 5.4; 8.6; 11.6; 16.4; 22.8%.

Therefore, our experimental data fully show that to keep pigs on fattening in 2 heads in one crate is the most appropriate, especially it is relevant for individual households and small farms. The number of pigs can be increased up to 10 heads in one crate for the large industrial complexes.

However, the further increase in the number of pigs on fattening in one feeding crate (20, 30 heads) leads to a sharp decline in animal growth (by 11.3; 16.8%). Thus, we conclude that the most widespread technological approach in these conditions, i.e. to keep pigs on fattening in 20-30 or more heads in one crate, is not optimal and needs to be changed.

Keywords: pigs, growth, live weight, average daily gain, feed outlay, cost price
