The study deals with the effect of the pen locations with regard to their place in the section on selected pig production parameters in the weaning pigs. 8 pens, each with 25 weaners pigs of the DanBred genotype, were tested. The body weight (BW), daily gain (DG), average daily gain (ADG), and mortality of animals at the start of the test, in the 14th, 28th, 42nd day and at the end the test, were monitored during the season during the same temperature. From the obtained results one could say, that the pen locations in the section may affect the growth intensity and mortality in pigs. Transverse pen locations, influence more significantly ADG as well as overall mortality then longitudinal pen location in the weaners section.
