Abstract

This study investigated the effect of heat stress on the performance and blood characteristics in commercial pig farms. A total of 180 growing pigs and 180 finishing pigs were assigned to two treatments consisting of thermal-neutral period(TNP) and high-temperature period(HTP) with three replications in floor pen, respectively. Feeding trials in the TNP and HTP were individually performed in autumn and summer seasons, respectively. Temperature-humidity index(THI) was calculated by temperature and humidity. Performance and physiological responses were identified per growth stages and feeding trial. Average temperature and THI were $16.8^{\circ}C$ and 61.4 at the TNP, and $25^{\circ}C$ and 74.3 at the HTP, respectively. Growing pigs in HTP exhibited lower BW, ADG and ADFI than in TNP(p<0.01). Similarly, finishing pigs showed lower growth parameters in HTP than in TNP(p<0.01). Lymphocytes and neutrophils of growing pigs were lower in HTP than in TNP(p<0.05). The serum T-PRO and NEFA in finishing pigs were higher in HTP than in TNP(p<0.05). In HTP, finishing pigs had higher cortisol levels than in TNP. Therefore, HTP can negatively influence growth performance and nutritional metabolism in pigs. Our results may provide useful information for developing feeding programs and diets to control heat stress for swine farms.

본 연구는 고온스트레스가 일반 양돈농가의 육성돈 및 비육돈의 성장단계별 생산성 및 혈액내 생리지표에 미치는 영향 구명하고자 실시하였다. 공시동물은 각각 180두씩 3원교잡($L{\times}Y{\times}D$)의 육성돈 및 비육돈을 사용하였고 처리구는 적온기와 고온기로 나누었으며 여름철을 고온기, 가을철을 적온기로 상정하였다. 육성돈과 비육돈은 평사에 처리당 3반복, 반복당 30두씩 배치하였다. 사육기간동안 온습도변화를 통해 열량지수를 산출하였고 생산성 및 생리적 변화는 성장단계별로 확인하였다. 적온기의 평균온도와 열량지수는 각각 $16.8^{\circ}C$, 61.4이며 고온기의 평균온도는 $25^{\circ}C$ 그리고 열량지수는 74.3을 나타냈다. 육성돈의 체중, 평균일당증체량 및 평균사료섭취량은 고온기에서 적온기보다 감소했다(p<0.01). 또한, 비육돈의 모든 생산지표들은 적온기에 비해 고온기에서 저하됐다(p<0.01). 육성돈의 혈중 백혈구와 호중구는 적온기보다 고온기에서 감소했다(p<0.05). 비육돈의 혈구조성은 온도에 영향을 받지 않았다. 육성돈의 혈중 생화학적특성은 변화가 없으며 적온기에 비해 고온기의 비육돈은 혈중 총단백질 및 비에스테르형지방산 증가했고 글루오스는 감소했다. 면역글로불린 G와 코르티솔은 육성돈에서는 차이가 없으며 비육돈은 고온기에서 코르티솔이 증가했다(p<0.01). 본 실험결과, 고온은 돼지의 생산성을 저해시키며 일부 혈액내 생화학적 지표에 영향을 미친다. 그리고, 온도조절을 통한 고온스트레스 영향이 아닌 계절에 따른 사육온도에 의한 생산성저감을 의미하므로 향후 양돈농가에서 고온스트레스를 조절할 수 있는 사양기술 및 사료개발에 유용한 정보로 활용될 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.
