Dataset of hair cortisol concentration in 950 finishing pigs on 20 commercial farms

Description

This dataset contains the hair cortisol concentrations of 950 finishing pigs. Pig hair was sampled as part of a study funded by the European project HealthyLivestock. Pigs were sampled in two separate batches on 20 farms (24 pigs/batch, two batches/farm. NB: 10 samples could not be analyzed at the laboratory). Farms were located in western France.  A reference to the article relating to this dataset will be added when the article will be published. -The first sheet includes the 950 hair cortisol concentrations, distinguishing the batches and farms where pigs were sampled. -The second sheet includes the estimation of the average size of a pig batch on the 20 farms where hair was sampled + the estimation of the percentage of pigs sampled per batch.
