Povzetek
A major challenge for EU pork production is the production of piglets. About 75% of male piglets are surgically castrated - many still without anesthesia. This practice raises strong public disapproval since the procedure is painful and causes considerable animal welfare problems. It turned out that raising entire males (EM) is not the long hoped for alternative, as boar taint remains an issue and welfare problems related to male behavior exist. Also the use of anesthesia during castration has disadvantages and violates the principle of physical integrity. Many of these problems can be avoided by immunocastration (IC). Our project deals with IC as an alternative with potential economic and ecological advantages. It can make the European pig industry more competitive – if it is optimized and gains greater market acceptance. SuSI is organized in 8 closely related work packages and includes experimental trials in four EU countries. During the first part of the SuSI-project, data and information from experimental trials are collected. Step 2 is the processing and analysis of specific data from these trials together with already existing data, step 3 the integration and dissemination. Steps 2 and 3 are the main tasks for the second half of the project.
