Resumen
Se evaluó el engorde porcino en sistema de cama seca para productores de escaso recurso hídrico. Se establecieron dos sistemas de producción porcina; uno convencional en donde los animales están en una infraestructura con piso de cemento y con un lavado diario del mismo y el otro denominado “cama seca”, en donde los animales se alojan en una infraestructura con una cama de 50 cm de viruta de madera. Se evaluaron las variables de gasto hídrico, ganancia de peso de los animales y un análisis económico comparando ambos sistemas. El sistema de cama seca generó un ahorro de agua de 26,42 L de agua diarios, en los que se incluyen agua para el libre consumo del animal, así como agua usada para la limpieza del galpón. No hubo diferencias significativas (p=0.6979) en la ganancia de peso de los animales en ambos sistemas. Se determinó que la inversión económica necesaria para implementar la infraestructura del sistema de producción porcina en cama seca es de 628.544 CRC menor que el sistema convencional, además que el mismo genera un ahorro diario de 71 CRC por animal en cuanto al mantenimiento general, lo cual es de mucho beneficio para productores con escaso recurso económico.
The experiment evaluated the fattening of pigs in a dry bed system for producers of scarce water resources. For it two systems of pig production were established: the conventional one where animals were in an infrastructure with cement floor and a daily wash; the other one is called “dry bed” in which animals were housed in an infrastructure with a bed of 50 cm of wood chips. Water variables expense, weight gain of the animals and an economic analysis were evaluated by comparing both systems. Which indicated that the dry bed system generated a water saving of 26.42 L, including cleaning the house and ad libitum for the animals. Also, there were no significant differences (p=0.6979) in the weight gain of the animals on both systems. It was determined that the implement of this system infrastructure for pig production in dry bed economic investment is of 628.544 CRC. Less than the conventional system and it too generates a daily saving 71 CRC per animal as to general maintenance, a great benefit to producers with low economic resource.
