Hello, Gerardo. Because that I know, as you are not accustomed to very often weigh the pigs and calculate the weight by sight -like one says here - not you of another existent formula to know with accuracy the weight without putting them in Roman or scale. If you find out, you tell it to me.
Greetings.

you should have a correlation between the corporal weight and the diameter of the thorax of the pigs like in the case of the bovine livestock, using the metric tape. For it, not you if there is already some tape worked.

it is This way, in the pig, the same as in the meat livestock you can calculate the weight (approximate) of the animal in proportion to their thoracic diameter. The type of metric tape that is used has three conversion units (for this way to say it) where one is for meat livestock, another stops swinish and the third don't remember well, but I find it is for won milkman

4 Animal factores:P:An=peso settles down
Perimeter Toraxico=P:T / Abdominal Perimeter = P:A.
Long of the Animal = L.A. It formulates it serious: P.A=PTxPAxLAx80.
80 are a constant in Kgxm3
Ej: an animal measures 1.80 of PT., 2.10 of P.Abdominal and 2 mts. of long seria:1.80x2.10x2x80=604.80. It is to weigh Bovine, one also can with Pigs. I wait it is of your help

For experience or like one says to the eye it is acquired going to the slaughterhouse and taking reference of three sizes, the grade, the medium one and the small one. the idea is made keeping in mind the state of the animal.
