Utilização de eCG/hCG e de Altrenogest na indução e sincronização de estros em marrãs

Abstract

A taxa de reposição anual do efetivo reprodutor de uma exploração suinícola, de grande e média dimensão é, em média, de 47,5%. Isto constitui um desafio para os produtores, que pretendem uma introdução rápida e sincronizada das marrãs no efetivo, recorrendo, por vezes à utilização de hormonas exógenas. Este ensaio insere-se num contexto prático particular de uma exploração, que pretende introduzir um número grande de marrãs, de estado de ciclicidade desconhecido, no seu efetivo, com recurso a tratamentos hormonais, evitando a associação de Atrenogest às gonadotrofinas eCG/hCG, preferindo aplicar estas hormonas isoladamente, de forma a avaliar qual dos tratamentos será mais eficaz neste contexto. Foram utilizadas 60 marrãs, divididas em dois grupos, provenientes da engorda, ou seja, resultantes da inseminação das porcas reprodutoras F1 (Large White x Landrace) com o sémen RAM2 (Duroc x Pietran) de um dos varrascos da exploração, com idades compreendidas entre os 6 e os 7 meses e PV entre 90 e 110 kg, não sendo conhecido o seu estado de ciclidade. Foi avaliada a eficiência de cada tratamento na indução/sincronização do estro e comparadas as marrãs que responderam positivamente aos tratamentos, avaliando o intervalo final de tratamento-cio e dois indicadores reprodutivos (a fertilidade e a prolificidade), a fim de avaliar qual o protocolo mais eficaz neste cenário. Os resultados revelaram que 100% das marrãs tratadas com altrenogest exibiram comportamentos de estro nos 4-10 dias pós tratamento, comparativamente com uma resposta de apenas 70% das marrãs tratadas com eCG/hCG. Não se registaram diferenças com significância estatística (p>0,05), entre os dois grupos de marrãs, para nenhum dos parâmetros avaliados posteriormente.

ABSTRACT - The annual replacement rate of the breeding stock of a large and medium-sized pig farm is, on average, between 45% and 50%. This is a challenge for producers, who want a quick and synchronized introduction of gilts into the effective, sometimes using exogenous hormones. This trial was performed on a particular practical context of a farm that aims to introduce a large number of gilts of unknown cyclicity into their herds using hormonal treatments, avoiding the association of altrenogest with gonadotrophins eCG/hCG, but preferring to apply these hormones alone, in order to find out which of these treatments will be most effective in this context. A total of 60 gilts resulting from the insemination of the F1 breeding sows (Large White x Landrace) with RAM2 semen (Duroc x Pietran) from one of the boars of the farm were used, divided into two groups, with ages between 6 and 7 months, live weights between 90 and 110 kg, and unknown reproductive status. The efficiency of each treatment in estrus induction/synchronization was evaluated and treatment interval-estrus and two reproductive indicators (fertility and prolificacy) were evaluated in gilts that responded positively to the treatments.in order to find out which protocol would be more effective in this scenario. The results revealed that 100% of gilts treated with altrenogest exhibited estrus behavior within 4-10 days after treatment, compared to a response of only 70% on gilts treated with eCG / hCG. There were no statistically significant differences (p> 0.05) between the two groups of gilts for any of the other parameters.
