5 Preface The Center for reearch in pig production and health CPH Pig enhance, conolidate and raie the profile of pig production reearch. The importance of reearch and innovation for the Danih pork indutry remain crucial. The Danih pig producer face tight financial preure and many factor contribute to the volatility urrounding the pork indutry. The production of finiher in Denmark i declining a producer export a ignificant and increaing number of weaner to be finihed elewhere in Europe. A goal of CPH Pig i, in collaboration with it many partner, to upport the Danih pig indutry with R&D that i eential in addreing driver of a profitable and utainable pork production in a global market. The 2016 eminar preent the recent development acro a divere range of dicipline impacting on pig production particularly on increaed productivity, urvival among piglet, MRSA, reduction in antibiotic uage and objective meaurement of animal welfare. With thi in mind, the reearch preentation of the CPH Pig eminar will cover four main theme: Growing pig, Sow and Piglet, Welfare and MRSA. It i our hope that thi third CPH Pig eminar will provide an excellent forum to preent new finding, foter in-depth dicuion, and hopefully provide olution to ome of the indutry challenge. The Univerity of Copenhagen and CPH Pig are integral in the training of undergraduate and potgraduate tudent and generating junior cientit who are eential to the future of the indutry. CPH Pig outwardly promote the involvement of tudent and early-career cientit at the meeting. The eminar again ha a coniderable number of young cientit attending and preenting their work and for many it will be their firt opportunity to interact with key indutry figure and organiation. It i a pleaure to direct the CPH Pig eminar and contribute to facilitating the networking of thoe involved in pig reearch and pork production. Thi eminar i poible becaue a dedicated group of individual coordinated and arranged all apect of the event. We wih to thank everyone for their contribution and dedication. However, mot importantly, thank you for participating and making the eminar a great ucce. Thank you for your upport and we hope you will continue to be part of the future achievement of the center.

The tool wa able to combine information from different ource (BW information from different pen and pig) and to increae the preciion of knowledge. When a detailed level of information wa provided, the forecat on number of pig above given threhold were given with high accuracy and preciion. Aggregation (to pen level) only lightly reduced the accuracy of prediction. Data on initial BW had high value for the prediction procedure. CPH Pig Slide 21 Department of Large Animal Science 30

86 TAIL BITING: PREVALENCE AMONG DOCKED AND UNDOCKED PIGS FROM WEANING TO SLAUGHTER Helle Pelant Lahrmann, Indutrial Ph.D. Student February 3th 2016 INTRODUCTION EU directive ban routine tail docking More than 95% of European pig are tail docked (EFSA 2007) Etimated 3.1% of Danih pig tail bitten depite the tail docking procedure (D Earth et al., 2014) The conequence of a ceation of tail docking in conventional Danih piggerie are not known Study aim Determine conequence of tail docking ceation on tail biting in a well-managed Danih conventional herd. DEFINITION TAIL BITING & TAIL LESION Tail biting i a behaviour damaging or non-damaging Definition damaging tail biting Pig chew on a pen mate tail reulting in a bloody wound on the tail (Munterhjelm et al. 2013) Damaging tail biting i painful to the pig can develop to uch an extent that the pig looe the majority of the tail increae the rik of infection increae the need for antibiotic treatment may caue death or euthanaia (Krita & Morrion 2004 & 2007) Tail leion i a condition Tail biting Tail leion 74

87 MATERIAL & METHODS Two group +/- tail docking Bite Rite Houing Same pen from weaning to laughter (table group) Docked and undocked pig in different pen pig per pen, mixed gender Daily proviion of ~230 g traw on the floor until 70 kg + two vertical wooden tick per pen If tail biting occurred a Bite Rite wa added and the amount of traw wa doubled Animal LYD pig, catrated male, individually earmarked PEN DESIGN RECORDINGS Every econd week all tail were inpected by a trained technician Recording by tockperon Date tail biting outbreak Antibiotic treatment Dead/euthanized pig Pig removed from pen and caue Abattoir Tail leion comment/condemned Part miing Full length 75
