“…When growing on bacon or meat it will be less (70-75%), and at fattening to the state of fat -80-82% and more. The number of bones in the carcass pigs landraces is less than 2.5 times (Sánchez-Macías et al, 2018).…”

Livestock breeding has a number of technological features. They are related to the specific properties of the object of cultivation – animals. In order to obtain high-quality animals, high-quality products must take into account their genetic features. For example, in pigs, the quality of meat, fat, smoked pork determines the breed of animals, their sex, age and the direction of cultivation. Therefore, the study of the impact of sex and genotype on the productivity of pigs is relevant and practically valuable. There are many literature on the quality of pork animals of various breeds: Landrace, Durok, Great White and others. Scientists note that the best bacon and meat qualities are pigs of pores Landrace. However, scientific literature knows little about the way the sex and origin of animals affect the quality of meat and bacon in these pigs. Therefore, the purpose of our research was to study the slaughter, the qualities of bacon, the physico-chemical indicators of meat and fat females and castrated male species of landraces of two lines List and Brom. During the experiment, zootechnical, statistical, biometric, biochemical methods of research were used. Scientific research was carried out in the complex of fattening and slaughter of the shop of a private enterprise. During the experiment, it was found that the mass of pigs after slaughter, the mass of carcasses and the yield of carcasses of females and castrated males of both lines did not differ. However, the visceral fat content was higher in women by 1.24–8.98% than in men. The properties of the pigs of both sexes were the same. However, in the male line of Brom, the width of the rear half of the carcass was 15% higher than that of women. The assessment of the quality of meat showed that females on both lines dominated by males for the content of fat, marble and calories. It has been experimentally established that the quality parameters of adipose tissue of Landrace have sex differences in the lines List and Brom. It was established that the water content in adipose tissue in women was lower in comparison with men by 0.5–2.35%, the fat was higher than 0.37–3.25%, the iodine number was 3.43–3.68 units. Our research can be recommended to companies that specialize in pig breeding. If a company breeds animals for processing into bacon or smoked, it is advisable to grow a breed from the Brom line. In this case, the best ham can be obtained from castrated males, and juicy, tender meat and more fatty tissue – in females.

“…The guinea pig (CY) is one of the most common animals in rural communities in the Andes (Garfí et al, 2011;Kouakou et al, 2013). It is distributed by the countries of Peru, Ecuador, Bolivia and Colombia, and was domesticated between 2,500 and 3,600 years ago (Cedano et al, 2020;Sánchez et al, 2018). In this sense, the production of guinea pigs and their use has a high degree of interest for the sustainability of the area, associated with its traditional and ethnic/regional character (Góngora, 2003;García, 2019).…”

The objective of this research was to evaluate the anaerobic co-digestion of guinea pig manure (CY) with Andean agricultural residues such as amaranth (AM), quinoa (QU) and wheat (TR) in batch biodigesters under mesophilic conditions (37⁰C) for 40 days. As microbial inoculum, sewage treatment sludge was used in two inoculum/substrate ratios (ISR of 1 and 2). In terms of methane production, the best results occurred in the treatments that contained AM and QU as co-substrate and an ISR of 2. Thus, the highest methane production occurred in the CY:AM biodigesters (25:75) and CY:QU (25:75) with 341.86 mlCH4/g VS and 341.05 mlCH4/g VS, respectively. On the other hand, the results showed that methane production with an ISR of 2 was more feasible for guinea pig waste, where the methane fraction of the biogas generated was in a range of 57 and 69%. The kinetics of methane production from these raw materials was studied using five kinetic models: modified Gompertz, logistic equation, transfer, cone, and Richards. The cone model was the one that best adjusted the experimental values with those observed with an r2 of 0.999 and an RMSE of 1.16 mlCH4/g VS. Finally, the highest biodegradability was obtained in the CY-AM biodigesters (25:75) with 67.92%.

“…porcellus does not adapt quickly to changes in diet and water (Shomer et al, 2015), and the main nutritional requirements consist of 10 to 16% of crude protein (CP) in the adults, and 18-20% in the growth stage, 15% of fiber, 0.80% of calcium, 0.40% of phosphorus, 6.6 IU/kg of Vitamin A, and 200 mg/kg of vitamin C (Cardona-Iglesias et al, 2020;León et al, 2016). Animal feeding is considered to be one of the factors that directly affect the production, reproduction, and quality of the carcass and meat in C. porcellus, in fact they grow well with the food waste from kitchens, although it is possible to increase meat production using concentrates and dietary supplements (Sánchez-Macías et al, 2018).…”

The Cavia porcellus L. systems implemented by small producers in Colombia have been slow to apply the processes of development and incorporation of feeding practices and technology in nutritional support. The objective of this study was to determine the feeding practices and technology in nutritional support implemented and projected in the C. porcellus L. systems by the producers. Four components were evaluated in 404 C. porcellus L. units and 29 focus groups: demography, identification of the production unit, implemented feeding practices, technology in nutrition and feeding, and the C. porcellus L. producers' perspectives. A Pearson Chi-squared test, a Tukey’s T-test, and a Multiple Linear Regression were used to evaluate the differences between regions using SPSS software version 20. The average area of C. porcellus L. -producing units corresponded to 0.35 ha (Nariño) and 0.17 ha (Putumayo). The predominant food base was forage (67%) produced on the farm (83%). There were significant differences between regions, with a p < 0.05 in food base, forage cultivation area, forage conservation feeding practices, type of fertilization, and the group of animals supplemented. The use of technology such as feed based on kitchen waste and supplements was used by producers in the Putumayo region (p > 0.05) most frequently. Our data show that C. porcellus L. systems in the study area not only have a high potential in the diversity of the forage supplements that makes up the diets but also in the development and implementation of feeding practices and technology in nutrition and animal feeding.
