Feeding Practices and Use of Lysine and Methionine in Pigrationing on Intensified Pig Breeding in the West Center and Hauts Bassins Regions of Burkina Faso
The aim
of the study was to assess feeding practices and the use of lysine and
methionine in pig rationing on intensified and semi-intensive pig breeding in
the Koudougou and Bobo-Dioulasso areas. To this end, a cross-sectional survey
was carried out on 87 breeding in these towns. A Discriminant Factorial
Analysis (DFA) confirming a k-means classification of the data collected was
used to retain 71 breeding divided into three breeding classes: Class A (32.4%
of breeding), Class B (14.08%) and Class C (53.52%). The results show that the
majority of pig breeders were men between the ages of 36 and 59. Average herd
sizes were 35±28; 79±42 and 89±21 pigs
for Classes A, B and C respectively. The main breeds of pig found on the
breeding were crossbred, Large white, local, Landrace and Duroc. Class A
(26.1%), B (30%) and C (15.8%) breeders were familiar with both lysine and
methionine. Class A breeders distributed feed staggered (65.2%) and in rations
(34.8%). Lysine (13%) and methionine (8.7%) were purchased at 5250 FCFA/kg.
Those in class B distributed feed staggered (50%) and in the form of rations
(50%), in which they incorporated lysine (30%) and methionine (30%) purchased
at a cost of 2500 FCFA/kg and 3000 FCFA/kg respectively. Rationing and
staggered feeding were practiced by 23.7% and 76.3% of Class C breeders
respectively. Only lysine purchased at 3400 FCFA/kg was incorporated into
rations by 10.5% of breeders. The high cost of lysine and methionine was
incriminated by Class A (100%), B (33.3%) and C (50%) breeders. In conclusion,
intensive pig breeding, the practice of rationing and the incorporation of the
amino acids lysine and methionine are of ascending importance from classes C, A
to B. The high cost of feedstuffs, particularly lysine and methionine,
compromises their use in rations, which could have a negative impact on
expected breeding performance. The screening and use of feeds rich in and/or
enriched with these amino acids, through the development or adaptation of
technologies, could improve
