| 内容記述 | Live weight is widely used as a reference indicator for growth performance and for evaluating the accuracy of weight measurement technologies in pig production. However, live weight is not a fixed physiological quantity, and finishing pigs naturally experience substantial short-term mass fluctuations due to normal behaviors such as drinking, feeding, urination, and defecation. In this study, we integrated published physiological and behavioral parameters into a stochastic simulation model to quantify within-day live-weight dynamics in finishing pigs weighing approximately 100 kg. The simulation was conducted with 1-min temporal resolution over a 24-h period. The model demonstrated that short-term weight fluctuations of approximately ±3-5 kg can occur within a single day, even when measurement error is minimal. Across 1000 simulated pigs, the mean daily fluctuation range was 4.2 kg, confirming that kilogram-scale variation is physiologically expected under normal conditions. These results provide a plausible physiological basis for understanding the frequently reported discrepancies between camera-based weight estimates and instantaneous floor-scale measurements. Camera systems primarily reflect body mass derived from external morphology, whereas floor scales measure instantaneous total mass that includes transient contributions from gastrointestinal contents, ingested water, and retained waste. Consequently, direct comparisons based on instantaneous scale readings can be misleading when used as ground truth. Our findings indicate that commonly cited accuracy claims of ±2-3 kg for camera weighing systems should be interpreted with caution, as normal physiological weight variation often exceeds this range. Recognizing live weight as a dynamic physiological variable is essential for developing biologically meaningful evaluation frameworks and for the appropriate interpretation and comparison of weight measurement technologies in precision livestock farming. | |||||||||||||||||
