Title
Links between environment and gastric ulcers in pigs.
Abstract
The article overviews the study on the prevalence of gastric ulceration in slaughter pigs reared under different conditions. The findings linked the gastric ulceration to environment and revealed that finisher pigs held back under intensive conditions may acquire ulcers in the pars oesophagea of the stomach, contributing to poorer growth and increased mortality.
