All aspects of animal welfare with respect to pigs are discussed, from genetic selection and breeding to transportation and slaughter. This book was written by scientific experts renowned for their knowledge and work in the area of pig welfare. Their common goal was to provide an in-depth review and empirical assessment of pig production concepts, knowledge and techniques in use today. The authors also had a practical goal to explain, through scientific examples, how improving animal welfare increases profitability. This work is intended for academics, researchers, students, animal welfare associations, industry and anyone involved in the production chain or concerned about the welfare of pigs being raised on farms.</p> 02 00 Cet ouvrage propose une synthèse sans équivalent sur le bien-être animal.
