Effects of rearing system and genotype on skeletal growth and carcass traits of pigs

A growing interest has been shown in alternative pig production because of the low capital cost of outdoor systems and awareness of niche marketing opportunities (Gentry et al., 2001). However, available data on productive performances and pork quality for free-range or confinementreared pigs widely...
