Abstract

Introduction: Disruption of feed intake during gestation has detrimental effects on reproductive performance and increased sow removals (Vargovic et al., 2021). The purpose of this study was to investigate whether the introduction of new sows to existing group-housed sows was associated with disruptions to feed intake or changes to feeding behaviour.
