| Popis: | The aim of this study was to investigate a potential impact on the formation and propagation of sound from pig barns. We tested a hypothesis that the sound generated from pig housing would be influenced by the measuring distance from the barn (up to 11 m), time of day relative to feeding, building side direction, and season of year. The research was carried out in a barn for 1728 fattening pigs in the summer and winter. The measurements were made inside and outside the barn. The data were recorded before feeding (BF), during feeding (FE), and after feeding (AF). Sound levels were significantly influenced by the time of day (P |
