The objective of the study was to evaluate the effect of the nutritional supplement VIUSID vet on the mortality and the productivity behaviour of fattening pigs in a low-input farming system. Two experiments were carried out at a pig farm in the municipality of Jatibonico, Sancti Spíritus province, Cuba. The farm has a low level of specialization, pigs are fed using local resources such as sugarcane (Saccharum officinarum) juice and locally produced concentrated feed. In both studies, the treatment consisted in administering together with the feed 2.0 g of VIUSID vet per Kg of feed. Results showed that in low-input rearing conditions, supplying VIUSID vet significantly reduced deaths (17.65%) in the pigs treated, favoured leukocyte and lymphocyte counts, and significantly improved weight gain (16.33%) and feed efficiency (14.41%).
