Twelve groups of piglets from 17 sows and 2 boars crossed Landrace x Large White were submited to the following treatmeots: TI- Use ofiron-dextran (200mg/piglet); T2-Free access to soil daily; T3- Access to soil in intervals of one day; T4- Access to soil in intervals of two days in a completely randomized design, with three replicates per treatrnent. The results did not indicate any difference between the treatrnents in relation to the performance of piglets. The prevention of iron deficiency anaemia was efficient when the iron-dextran was used and when the soil was freely offered daily or in one day-interval. The treatrnent with two days-interval showed values of hernatocrite, in the 7th and 14th day, significantly lower than the other treatments.porAcesso AbertoAnemia ferroprivaDesempenhoLeitãoIron deficiency anaemiaPerformancePigletsArtigo
