Dietary Se is provided as a nutritional supplement to livestock diets in inorganic (ISe) or organic (OSe) form and has different bioavailability to animals. However, the comparison of the effects of dietary Se in different forms and levels of bioavailability are still limited. Therefore, this study was conducted to evaluate the effects of dietary Se sources and levels on growth performance, carcass characteristics, proximate composition of pork loin, Se concentrations, and blood biochemistry of growing-finishing pigs. In a randomized complete block design (block = initial body weight and sex), 160 pigs (28.17 ± 3.03 kg of body weight) were allotted to five dietary treatments (4 pigs/pen; 8 replicates/treatment) and fed for 14 weeks. Dietary treatments were 1) a non-Se-fortified diet based on corn and soybean meal provided as control (CON), 2) CON + 0.3 ppm ISe (ISe3), 3) CON + 0.5 ppm ISe (ISe5), 4) CON + 0.3 ppm OSe (OSe3), and 5) CON + 0.5 ppm OSe (OSe5). Data and sample collections were conducted at the specific time points during the study. Pigs fed dietary OSe tended to have an increased (p < 0.10) gain to feed ratio in the grower phase compared with those fed dietary ISe. In addition, dietary OSe increased (p < 0.05) hot carcass weight compared with dietary ISe. In contrast, dietary ISe increased (p < 0.05) crude protein content of pork loin compared with dietary OSe. Se concentrations in the kidney and pork loin were higher when the dietary Se source was OSe (p < 0.05) and increased with increasing dietary Se level (p < 0.05).

Large-scale pig farming requires extensive visual monitoring by workers, which is time-consuming and laborious. However, a potential solution is computer vision-based monitoring of posture and movement. The objective of this study was to recognize and detect pig posture using a masked-based instance segmentation for automated pig monitoring in a closed pig farm environment. Two automatic video acquisition systems were installed from the top and side views. RGB images were extracted from the RGB video files and used for annotation work. Manual annotation of 600 images was used to prepare a training dataset, including the four postures: standing, sitting, lying, and eating from the food bin. An instance segmentation framework was employed to recognize and detect pig posture. A region proposal network was used in the Mask R-CNN-generated candidate boxes and the features from these boxes were extracted using RoIPool, followed by classification and bounding-box regression. The model effectively identified standard postures, achieving a mean average precision of 0.937 for piglets and 0.935 for adults. The proposed model showed strong potential for real-time posture monitoring and early welfare issue detection in pigs, aiding in the optimization of farm management practices. Additionally, the study explored body weight estimation using 2D image pixel areas, which showed a high correlation with actual weight, although limitations in capturing 3D volume could affect precision.

Derived from plant-based sources such as herbs, spices, and essential oils, PFAs have demonstrated significant potential to enhance production performance, improve gut health, and mitigate environmental impact in non-ruminant systems. Bioactive compounds such as thymol, carvacrol, menthol, and anethole play a crucial role in modulating gut microbiota, strengthening immune responses, and reducing gastrointestinal disorders. Their antimicrobial and antioxidant properties further support animal health while reducing antibiotic dependence, addressing growing concerns over antimicrobial resistance. Additionally, they contribute to improved nutrient digestibility and feed efficiency, leading to enhanced growth performance. From an environmental perspective, their use is associated with lower greenhouse gas emissions and reduced waste contamination, aligning with sustainability goals in modern livestock systems. PFAs improve feed efficiency, leading to reduced feed waste and lower resource input, which in turn decreases the environmental burden of livestock production. Additionally, their antimicrobial properties may reduce the need for synthetic chemicals in animal health management, further minimizing the release of harmful substances into the environment. Despite these promising benefits, inconsistencies in research findings highlight the need for further studies to determine optimal inclusion levels and clarify their mechanisms of action. Future research should focus on developing standardized formulations, improving bioavailability, and assessing long-term effects on animal health and performance. Additionally, advancements in delivery technologies and synergistic combinations with other feed additives could enhance their efficacy.

This issue has been exacerbated by the adoption of hyperprolific sows and the transition to loose housing pens, adversely affecting both animal welfare and productivity. In response to these challenges, researchers have progressively turned to artificial intelligence of things (AIoT) to address various issues within the livestock sector. The primary objective of this study was to conduct a comparative analysis of different versions of object detection algorithms, aiming to identify the optimal AIoT system for monitoring piglet crushing events based on performance and practicality. The methodology involved extracting relevant footage depicting instances of piglet crushing from recorded farrowing pen videos, which were subsequently condensed into 2-3 min edited clips. These clips were categorized into three classes: no trapping, trapping, and crushing. Data augmentation techniques, including rotation, flipping, and adjustments to saturation and contrast, were applied to enhance the dataset. This study employed three deep learning object recognition algorithms-- You Only Look Once (YOLO)v4-Tiny, YOLOv5s and YOLOv8s--followed by a performance analysis. The average precision (AP) for trapping detection across the models yielded values of 0.963 for YOLOv4-Tiny, and 0.995 for both YOLOv5s, and YOLOv8s. Notably, trapping detection performance was similar between YOLOv5s and YOLOv8s. However, YOLOv5s proved to be the best choice considering its model size of 13.6 MB compared to YOLOv4-Tiny's 22.4 MB and YOLOv8's 21.4 MB. Considering both performance metrics and model size, YOLOv5s emerges as the most suitable model for detecting trapping within an AIoT framework.

However, their effectiveness is limited by restrictions on data sharing and non-standardized formats. This limitation leads to other restrictions against researchers, such as restrictions on the range of projects, the supply of new technologies or farm species, and policy development or application restrictions. Therefore, promoting a recirculating environment to increase productivity, developing climate-adapted livestock, and implementing policies are necessary. We discuss the smart livestock farm from the perspective of '<i>Phenotype</i> = <i>Genetic value</i> + <i>Environment value</i>'.
