Il est intéressant de noter [...] l'effet du poids d’abattage [des porcs] sur la conversion alimentaire [...] Dans la partie zootechnique de [l'étude], la conversion entre le poids initial de 30 kg et le poids final augmente d’environ 0, 09 point de conversion par 10 kg d’augmentation du poids final. Pour des poids initiaux variant de 27 à 29 kg, [les scientifiques] rapportent une augmentation de 0, 06 et 0, 09 [points] de conversion par 10 kg de poids vif, ces valeurs ayant été obtenues lors de deux essais comparant chacun les performances obtenues après 14 semaines à celles obtenues après 20 semaines d’engraissement. 2, record 1, French, - poids%20initial

The stock assessment was characterised by considerable uncertainty associated with conflicting growth models and a range of plausible natural mortality estimates and sizes for full recruitment. In addition, there was conflict in the fitted index series, with the biomass indices generally showing little contrast while the mean weight at age series showed increases after a sharp initial drop. 2, record 2, English, - mean%20weight%20at%20age%20series

L'évaluation du stock était caractérisée par une incertitude considérable concernant les modèles de croissance conflictuels et une variété d’estimations plausibles de la mortalité naturelle et de la taille pour un recrutement complet. En outre, la série d’indices adaptés contenait des incohérences; les indices de biomasse montraient généralement peu de contraste, tandis que le poids moyen selon la série sur l'âge indiquait des augmentations après un déclin initial abrupt. 1, record 2, French, - poids%20moyen%20selon%20la%20s%C3%A9rie%20sur%20l%27%C3%A2ge
