The aim of the study was to evaluate the effects of two peri-partum feeding strategies (ad libitum and stepped from day 110 of gestation to day 5 post-partum) on the feed intake, the reproductive performance of sows, as well as the survival of their piglets. A total of 90 Landrace x Large-White dams sired by Duroc were used. The sows were randomly assigned to feeding treatments by balancing body condition and parity between groups. The feed intake of the sows in the peri-partum was lower in the stepped than in the ad libitum strategy. The increase of the feeding level in the ad libitum sows was not counterbalanced by higher number of weaned piglets or shorter weaned to oestrus interval. info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess by http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/es/ 2.323 2019 VETERINARY SCIENCES 14 / 141 = 0.099 2019 Q1 T1 AGRICULTURE, DAIRY & ANIMAL SCIENCE 10 / 63 = 0.159 2019 Q1 T1 0.601 2019 Veterinary (miscellaneous) 2019 Q1 Animal Science and Zoology 2019 Q1 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Latorre, María Ángeles Universidad de Zaragoza (orcid)0000-0002-3005-2675 Álvarez-Rodríguez, Javier 2008 700 Universidad de Zaragoza Dpto.
