Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleEFFECT OF REPLACING CORN AND SOYBEAN MEAL WITH BREWERS RICE AND DRIED DISTILLERS BREWERS YEAST ON PERFORMANCE OF GROWING-FINISHING PIGSOndieki Gekara, Talesha Dokes, Renita MarshallThe objective of this study was to determine the effect of replacing corn and Soybean Meal (SBM) with Brewers Rice (BR) and Dried Distillers Brewers Yeast (DDBY), respectively, on ADG, G:F, Apparent Total Tract Digestibility (ATTD), fecal DM output and fecal loss of N and P of growing-finishing pigs. Sixty four Yorkshire x Duroc x Hampshire crosses (BW = 73±5.7 … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 24 Apr 2014 · 7,193 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleDiet Modification to Reduce Fecal Excretion of Nitrogen and Phosphorus in Growing-Finishing PigsOndieki Gekara, Talesha Dokes, Renita MarshallAn experiment was conducted to determine whether brewers rice can replace all corn in diets for swine and reduce fecal excretion of Nitrogen (N) and Phosphorus (P) without compromising performance and carcass quality of growing-finishing pigs. Sixteen Yorkshire x Duroc x Hampshire crosses (BW = 77±2.5 kg) were randomly assigned to either corn/soybean meal (CSM; control) or brewers rice/soybean meal … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 3 Oct 2013 · 7,452 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleEvaluation of Fibrous Diets for Finishing Pigs: Digestibility, Performance and Carcass TraitsBernardo Berenchtein, Adibe Luiz Abdalla, Patrícia Pimentel Santos Riguetto et al.Two experiments were conducted to evaluate digestibility, performance and carcass traits of finishing pigs fed fibrous diets, such as, basal diet (Control treatment) and inclusion of Tifton-85 hay, Soybean hulls or Citrus pulp. Twenty crossbred castrated male pigs, with average body weight of 70.00±1.95 kg, distributed in a randomized block design with four treatments and five repetitions (blocks) were used … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 11 Feb 2019 · 7,273 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsNutritional Evaluation and Effectiveness of Detoxified Jatropha curcas Kernel Meal in Finishing Pig Diets on Biogas and Methane Production from SlurryBernardo Berenchtein, Adibe Luiz Abdalla, Patricia Pimentel Santos Righetto et al.The purpose of this work was to evaluate Phorbol Ester’s (PE), Total Fenols (TF), Total Tannins (TT), Condensed Tannins (CT), Saponins Content (SPN), amino acids profiles and apparent digestibility of detoxicated Jatropha curcas meal in finishing pigs diets, as well as biogas and methane production by the manure from cross-bred pigs fed this meal. Apparent digestibility coefficients of Dry Matter … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 3 · 30 Aug 2016 · 7,638 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStudy on the Correlations between Mineral Contents in Musculus Longissimus Dorsi and Meat Quality for Five Breeds of PigsREN Guang-zhi, WANG Ming, LI Zhen-tian et al.The correlations between mineral contents in musculus longissimus dorsi and meat quality for five breeds of pigs were studied in this experiment. Two imported breeds (Duroc and Yorkshires) and three local breeds (Huainan pig, Nanyang black pig, Queshan black pig) from Henan province of China were chosen in this trial. Ten 90 kg finishing pigs were selected randomly to slaughter … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2008 · 7,159 accessesView PDF Cite
