The genetic connectedness between herds is an essential requirement to make robust across-herd estimation of the breeding values of the animals. In this study, genetic connectedness between herds was evaluated by a connectedness rating method. A total of 24,971 records of days to 90 kg (D90KG) of the pigs on performance testing programs collected from six herds (labeled from 'A' to 'F') of Duroc breed along with pedigree information comprising 456,697 families were used. Results showed that a total of eight boars were used for semen exchange programs among participant farms. Herds 'A' through 'E' were found strongly connected among them. But 'F' herd was genetically connected strongly only with 'A' herd. The highest average connectedness rating was 91.7% between 'A' herd and 'C' herd. The lowest average connectedness rating was 65.1% between 'D' and 'F'. The concept of a single genetic group comprising six Duroc herds studied is meaningful due to high connectedness rates among them. Therefore, with this high genetic ties between participant Duroc farms, the more accurate genetic evaluation would be possible.

Heritability estimates for daily gain (g), backfat thickness (mm), days to 90kg (day), loin eye depth (mm) and meat percent (%) were 0.40, 0.44, 0.40, 0.25 and 0.48, respectively. Estimates of correlation between breeding value and rank for meat productivity traits by model 1 and 2 were 0.995 1.000 and 0.991 1.000, respectively and highly significant (p< 0.0001), and they were almost identical to the breeding values estimated by different farms. When top 5% and top 10% animals were selected by meat productive traits at different farms, markedly different animals were selected by farms since the selected improvement traits in each farm maintaining closed herds were different. Therefore, it seems to be desirable that superior pigs should be selected after the establishment of evaluation system for genetic performance at national level using the integrated data obtained from various farms.

This study was conducted to estimate the effect of sex, breed and on the basis of the records on 300 pigs of Duroc, Landrace and Yorkshire breeds raised at the National Institute of Animal Science. Yorkshire was observed to be superior to other breeds between 90 to 110 kg of body weight. Thicker backfat was estimated in the B-mode than in A-mode of 110 kgs range than in 90 kgs. Loin eye muscle area was larger in the final weight of 110kg than in 90 and the Duroc had significantly (p<0.05) larger loin eye muscle area than other breeds. Thinner backfat was observed in males than in females in both modes of backfat measurements and in both of the final weights of test. Females had significantly larger loin eye muscle area than males, and the difference between the two sexes were larger in the final weight of 110 kg than in 90 kg. Analysis models concluded that backfat thickness certainly influences the body weight gain when at 90 kgs and 110 kgs analysed with A-mode and B-mode respectively.

카나다의 돼지개량에 대한 국가적 유전능력 평가는 산육능력(100kg의 등지방과 일령)과 모돈의 번식능력(총산자수)을 BLUP animal model(최선형 불변예상치 가축모형 : Best Linear Unbiased Predictor Animal Model)을 이용하여 정규적으로 평가하고 있다. 새로운 검정자료가 수집되어 질때마다 매번 BLUP평가가 이루어져 농장으로 제공된다. 현재의 유전능력 변화에 대한 추정가는 연간 등지방 두께 0.35mm와 100kg도달일령 1.5일이 향상되었다. 이것은 1985년 BLUP이 소개된 이전보다 등지방 $50\%$, 일령 20배 이상의 개량효과이다. 그 외에 모돈의 번식형질에 대한 개량은 계속적으로 연구가 진행되고 있으며 국가적 육종계획에는 도체와 육질에 대한 유전적 개량사업이 추진되고 있다.

A survey was conducted to determine the status of health and productivity of poultry farms in Korea. Area included Was Kyunggido where exist nearly 50% of national poultry population. From this area, 41 layer and 34 broiler farms covering 21 Countries were selected randomly for the survey. When farms were divided in the operation size, 95.1% of layer and 82.3% of broiler farms were classified as business or industrial level while the rest were managed in a small scale as part time job. Generally layer farms had been established much earlier than broiler farms. Geographically 10.7% of layer farms were sited near the housing area such as field foreast and rice field. No farms were located near the seashore. The distance from one farm from the other was very close, being 80% of the farms within the distance of 1km and as many as 28% of the farms within loom. This concentrated poultry farming in a certain area created serious problems for the sanitation and preventive measures, especially in case of outbreak of infectious diseases. Average farm size was 5,016${\times}$3.3㎡ for layers and 1,037${\times}$3.3㎡ for broilers. 89.5% of layer ana 70.6% of broiler farms owned the land for farming while the rest were on lease. In 60% of layer farms welters were employed for farming while in the rest their own labour was used. Majority of farms were equipped poorly for taking necessary practice of hygiene and sanitation. The amount of disinfectant used by farms was considerably low. As many as 97.6% of lave. farms were practised with Newcastle(ND) and fowl pox(F$.$pox) vaccine, whereas only 43.6% and 5.1% of broiler farms were practised with ND and F$.$pox vaccine, respectively. In 17-32.7% of farms ND vaccine was used less than twice until 60 days of age and in only 14.6% of farms adult birds were vaccinated every 4months. Monthly expense for preventive measures was over 200,000W in 32% of farms. Only 4.9-2.7% of vaccine users were soaking advice from veterinarians before practising vaccination, 85% of the users trusted the efficacy of the vaccines. Selection of medicine was generally determined by the farm owner rather than by veterinarans on whom 33.3% of farms were dependant. When diseases outbroke, 49.3% of farms called for veterinary hospital and the rest were handled by their own veterinarians, salesmen or professionals. Approximately 70% of farms were satisfied with the diagnosis made by the veterinarians. Frequency of disease outbreaks varied according to the age and type of birds. The livabilities of layers during the period of brooding, rearing ana adultwere 90.5, 98.9 and 75.2%, respectively while the livalibility of broilers until marketing was 92.2%. In layers, average culling age, was 533.3 day and hen housed eggs were 232.7. Average feed conversion rates of layers and broilers were 3.30 and 2.48, respectively. Those figures were considerably higher than anticipated but still far lower than those in developed countries.
