La “democracia protegida” en Chile

The central aim of this article is to analyze the conception of “protected democracy”, formulated by Pinochet’s military dictatorship, which is still in place in its central features in the Constitution of 1980 and its political Acts. Likewise, the paper analyzes the main theoretical sources of the conception of “protected democracy” and, finally, defends the idea that the democratic transition will not end until such a conception will be replaced by a democratic and truly participative new conception of democracy.El propósito principal de este artículo es el de exponer la concepción de “democracia protegida”, elaborada por la dictadura militar de Pinochet, la cual continúa vigente, en sus aspectos centrales, mediante la Constitución de 1980 y las leyes políticas adjuntas. Asimismo, se identifican sus principales fuentes teóricas y, finalmente, se expone la idea que no terminará la transición democrática, mientras esta concepción no sea sustituida por una concepción democrática actualizada y verdaderamente participativa

Nutritional Management During Gestation and Lactation on an Integrated Swine Farm. Case study

On the Rescate de Sanguily swine farm, of the Swine Company of Camagüey, whose purpose is to prefatten pigs for fattening agreements with farmers, the nutrition of breeding sows and the feasibility of using alternative rations or nonconventional products for nutrition were partially assessed during gestation and lactation. The protein and energy values were higher than the requirements set up for these categories. Replacement of commercial feed by two types of feeds was simulated with the use on nonconventional raw materials during pig gestation and lactation. The goal was to assess the possibility to cut down on the costs of nutrition, close the gap between the requirements and nutrient contribution (CP and DE), and convenience of its inclusion of roughages on the breeder´s diet. A comparison of the costs per ton of feedstuffs showed a difference toward nonconventional products, which may offer some selection criteria to farmers, provided that they are willing to implement diversifying strategies on their farms, or sign agreements with farms seeking profits for the two entities

Nutritional Management of Prefattening and Fattening Stages ot an Integrated Swine Farm

The aim of this paper is to assess economic and biologic feasibility of different feed categories in swine prefattening and fattening stages. Equally important is to quantify the contribution of nutrients, digestible energy, and crude proteins based on conventional raw materials (corn and soybean), as well as nonconventional ones (parted rice, fat and sunflower meal). A composition analysis was made, and rations for pigs were simulated in the abovementioned stages. According to the standard supplies, the protein levels found in the commercial feed type were either excessive or deficient at times in relation to animal requirements. The costs of production were subsequently increased, and nutritional unbalances were observed, making feed rations costlier than the feeds made for the stages under the study, using nonconventional raw materials
