Different effects of road transport on yearling lambs

Öz:

Bu çalışma 5, 10 ve 24 saat taşınan toklularda meydana gelen ağırlık kayıplarını, kaybedilen ağırlıkların taşıma sonrası geri kazanımını ve taşıma maliyetlerini belirlemek için yürütülmüştür. Çalışmada, 63 adet, kırkılmış, erkek Akkaraman toklular kullanılmış ve hayvanlar 4 gruba (kontrol; taşınmayan grup, Grup I; 5 saat taşınan, Grup II; 10 saat taşınan ve Grup III; 24 saat taşınan) ayrılmıştır. Grup I, II ve III olarak taşınan hayvanlar (16x3=48 toklu) kamyona 0.35 m2/baş sıklıkta olacak şekilde yüklenirken, kontrol grubu (15 hayvan) aynı sıklıkta ağılda tutulmuştur. Her taşıma sonrası taşınan hayvanlardaki canlı ağırlık kaybı, kontrol grubuna göre istatistiksel olarak önemli olmamakla birlikte (P>0.05) hafif de olsa daha fazla olarak tespit edilmiştir. Taşınan toklularda canlı ağırlık kayıpları %3.4-%6.5 arasında tespit edilirken, kontrol grubunda %3.0-%6.2 arasında tespit edilmiştir. Kontrol ve 5 saat taşınan gruplardaki hayvanlar taşımadan 72 saat sonra taşıma öncesi canlı ağırlıklarına ulaşmışlardır. Kontrol ile 5, 10 ve 24 saat taşınan gruplar arasında toplam taşıma maliyetleri farkı sırasıyla 7.0 US$/baş, 12.7 US$/baş ve 20.2 US$/baş olarak hesaplanmıştır. Sonuç olarak, karayolu ile yapılan taşımalarda toklularda meydana gelen canlı ağırlık kayıplarını, taşıma stresinden çok hayvanların aç kalmasına bağlamak mümkündür. İlave olarak, tokluların karayolu ile 5, 10 ve 24 saat taşınması, taşıma sonrası hayvan başına sırasıyla 7.0 US$, 12.7 US$ ve 20.2 US$ daha fazla fiyata satılabileceklerse önerilmektedir.

This study was conducted to determine weight losses, subsequent recovery, and transportation costs in yearling lambs transported for 5, 10 and 24 h. Sixty-three, shorn, male, yearling Akkaraman lambs were used and assigned into 4 groups, namely; control group (un-transported), Group I (transported for 5 h), Group II (transported for 10 h) and Group III (transported for 24 h). Transported lambs (16x3=48 lambs) in groups I, II, and III were loaded on a lorry at a density of 0.35 m2/head, while control group (15 lambs) were kept with the same density in the barn. After each journey, a slight but not significant live weight loss was observed in the transported lambs compared to lambs in control group (P>0.05). The live weight losses were determined between 3.4%-6.5% in transported lambs and 3.0%-6.2% in control group. Lambs in control group and 5 hour-transported lambs reached pre-transport live weight after 72 h. After 5, 10 and 24 h transportation the difference between total transportation costs of control and transported lambs was calculated as 7.0 US$/head, 12.7 US$/head and 20.2 US$/head, respectively. In conclusion, removal of feed could be explain as the more important reason of live weight losses during road transportation, compared to weight losses due to transportation stress. Additionally, 5, 10 and 24 hours transportation of lambs may suggest that they can be sold for 7 US$/head, 12.7 US$/head and 20.2 US$/head more, respectively.
