The term «fat hog» becoming old-fashioned because fat is no longer a desirable trait in pigs. The new terminology is "grower pig" (covering the phase after weaning) and "finisher pig" (covering the final stages of feeding). The term "feeder pig" or "feeder hog" is restricted to the younger of these two phases. 4, record 1, English, - grower%2Dfinisher%20pig

Baker found that replacing an equal weight of ground snapped corn with citrus molasses in steer fattening rations resulted in higher feed consumption, larger and cheaper gains, earlier finish and slightly higher carcass grades. ... Kirk ... reported that steers fed 120 days with ground snapped corn as the energy feed gained 2.37 pounds per day and required 539 pounds TDN per 100 pounds gain. When dried citrus pulp was used, cattle gained 2.17 pounds per day and 466 pounds TDN were required. 2, record 17, English, - fattening%20ration

Oysters like to grow in reefs, oyster attached to oyster. Spats confuse our bags of shells with oyster reefs and settle down upon them. After a year, the bags are transplanted to our 'Fattening Beds'. Fattening beds are closer to the ocean than catching beds. On a fattening bed, oysters get more of the algae and plankton that the ocean brings into the bay. This oysters can be scattered onto the fattening beds. 1, record 18, English, - fattening%20bed

Arcachon fait aussi l'élevage complet de ses huîtres. Les jeunes huîtres sont encore placées sur parcs, protégées par un grillage que l'on appelle «blindage», et coiffées d'un petit auvent : la cardine. Elles sont surtout élevées sur tables, en pochons. Elles sont ensuite placées en parcs d'affinage, où elles améliorent encore leur poids et gagnent leur goût inimitable de terroir arcachonnais. 2, record 18, French, - parc%20d%27affinage
