“…Differences between pig sexes when using measuring tape to evaluate morphometric measurements in farm animals were found by Li et al (2013), Formenton et al (2019) and Rahman et al (2019). The speed of development of a given region of the body advances until reaching the maximum and begins to decrease as the animal phase adulthood.…”

Objective was to define a mathematical model that better explain the relationship of the animals weight depending not only on the animals age but also on the animals morphometric measurements. 40 piglets, half Duroc-Large White blood, were used, 20 males and 20 females, from 3 to 35 days of age (lactation phase) initially weighing 1.518 ± 0.121 kg and from 36 to 66 days of age (calving phase) with a body weight of 7.010 ± 0.704 kg. The animals were weighed weekly on a digital balance. The relationship of animal weight, age and morphometric measurements of male and female piglets were performed using regression models: existing, linear and power. The models were evaluated according to nine criterialinear model was the most adequate to explain the weight of male pigs, while for female pigs was the power. The age of the pig, the shank and palette length, as well as the circumference of the shank jointly explain the weight of the male piglets. The weight of females is explained jointly by age, body length, thorax and hip circumference.

“…Labai svarbu, kad naujų kartų reprodukcijai paliekamos kiaulės būtų sveikos, tinkamai išsivystę ir tvirto sudėjimo 1 . Įvairaus amžiaus kiaulių dydis yra svarbus rodiklis kiaulių fermose diegiant auginimo ir realizavimo technologijas (Rahman et al, 2019 skenavimas. Taip ieškoma naujų sprendimų, kaip nesukeliant kiaulėms papildomų streso dirgiklių ir be tiesioginio kontakto būtų galima nustatyti jų dydį, įvertinti tinkamumą realizacijai, priimti įvairius technologinius sprendimus (Wongsriworaphon et al, 2015).…”

The aim of the study was phenotypic characterization and comparative evaluation of Lithuanian Indigenous Wattle and Lithuanian White pigs. Physical measurements were taken only from a representative set of adult animals: sows and boars. Evaluation of breeds included discrete (qualitative) and quantitative variables and was performed according to the Guidelines of FAO for Phenotypic Characterization of Animal Genetic Resources. The data were subjected to the analysis of variance in general linear (GLM) and discriminant analysis procedures in SPSS 17. The qualitative characterization of preserved animals validated the characteristics of Lithuanian pig breeds described in old literature. The comparative evaluation of the physical measurements of Lithuanian White and Lithuanian Indigenous Wattle pigs showed the highest significant differences in body, ear and tail length. Due to the different physiological status of females the statement that Lithuanian White pigs are larger animals than Lithuanian Indigenous Wattle pigs better confirms the weight and body dimensions of males. Small differences in body dimensions were found only between the youngest animal groups under 24 months of age and older animals. However, the results of the canonical discriminant analysis did not give any evidence that pigs of different age have different characteristics.
