Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Feed efficiency in swine' has been prepared as a comprehensive treatise on the current state of our understanding of this topic which is so important to the pork industry. Each chapter is written by international authorities who understand both the science and application of their topic area. The book provides detailed insight into the many factors affecting feed efficiency, ranging from diet processing to herd health, from nutrition to physiology and from day-to-day barn management to the adoption of advanced technologies. The authors explain such practical aspects as the challenge of interpreting feed efficiency information obtained on farm or the role of liquid feeding. The authors also delve into more scientific topics such as amino acid or energy metabolism or animal physiology. This book is written for people who have a technical interest in pork production, including nutritionists, geneticists, farm management specialists, veterinarians, other academics and, of course, pork producers.
Download or read book Evaluation of the Effects of Branched Chain Amino Acids and Corn distillers Dried Grains By products on the Growth Performance Carcass and Meat Quality Characteristics of Pigs written by Alvaro Rojo Gomez and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Studies were conducted to evaluate the effects of corn byproducts high-protein died distillers grain (HP-DDG), and dried distillers grain with solubles (DDGS), and branched chain amino acids (BCAA) on the growth performance and meat quality of pigs. The first study evaluated the combined effect of dietary level of DDGS and HP-DDG on the growth performance of wean-finish pigs and carcass and pork quality characteristics. This study demonstrated that DDGS can be included at up to 30% in diets (without HP-DDG) without compromising growth performance of wean-to-finish pigs. However, growth performance was increasingly compromised at higher inclusion levels of both co-products and belly firmness was negatively affected by increasing levels of both DDGS and HP-DDG. A second experiment was designed to define the minimum CP level and whether non-essential amino acids become limiting in low crude protein diets for late finishing pigs. The results of this study demonstrated that late finishing pigs can be fed diets with 9.76% crude protein level supplemented with 0.32 % L-Lys HCL and other essential amino acids without affecting growth rate and that non-essential amino acids were not limiting in the low crude protein diets evaluated. A third study was designed to recreate the negative effects on growth performance of feeding diets with 30% HP-DDG inclusion level and to test if the negative effect of feeding high HP-DDG levels on growth performance can be reproduced by adding excess branched chain amino acids (leucine, isoleucine, and valine) to standard corn-soybean meal based diet. The results show that the reduction in the growth rates of growing pigs fed diets with 30% HP-DDG inclusion levels may be due to the dietary excesses of leucine present in diets with HP-DDG at 30% inclusion levels. The same effect was not present in finishing pigs. In general, growth performance and belly quality are compromised at higher inclusion levels of both HP-DDG and DDGS. The results of the last studies indicate that leucine level may play an important role on the reduction of the growth performance of pigs fed 30% HP-DDG inclusion levels.

This book was released on 2019 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This dissertation is comprised of 5 chapters consisting of a study evaluating space allowance and marketing strategies for pigs raised to 160 kg, three experiments evaluating the impact of removing corn distillers dried grains with solubles (DDGS) from finishing pig diets, four studies evaluating the use of medium chain fatty acids (MCFA) as a mitigation strategy for porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV), and development of a swine-specific undergraduate research program. In Chapter 1, four treatments were evaluated with decreasing space allowance from 1.17 to 0.71 m2/pig with only one final marketing event, plus two treatments with restricted space allowance and four or three marketing events. Increasing space allowance via increased initial pen inventory increased average daily gain (ADG), decreased average daily feed intake (ADFI), and reduced feed efficiency (G:F). Marketing pigs 3 or 4 times improved G:F compared with to the similar treatment with only one marketing event but resulted in similar weight marketed per pen. In chapter 2, pigs were switched from diets containing corn DDGS to corn- and soybean-meal based diets (CSBM) starting at 76 d prior to market. As time consuming CSBM increased, ADG and final BW increased and G:F improved. Average daily feed intake decreased with increasing time after dietary switch to CSBM. Hot carcass weight increased and iodine value decreased with increasing time after DDGS removal from diets. Chapter 3 also evaluated the removal of corn DDGS from finishing pig diets but utilized two seasonal marketing strategies. Regardless of marketing strategy, switching pigs from DDGS to CSBM resulted in increased carcass yield and decreased iodine value, yet live growth performance was marginally impacted. In chapter 4, four experiments were conducted to evaluate the efficacy of applying MCFA to swine feed on detection and infectivity of PEDV. Applying chemical mitigants both prior to and post-PEDV inoculation was effective at reducing PEDV detection via quantitative real time reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). When tested individually and in combination and applied before viral inoculation, caproic and caprylic acid appeared to provide the greatest reduction of detectable genetic material. The addition of a 1:1:1 blend of C6:C8:C10 at 0.5% and 0.3% C8 prevented infection in in vivo bioassay. Lastly, chapter 5 presents a model to develop a species-specific undergraduate research program in the context of a swine nutrition program that is currently in use at Kansas State University. This program utilizes both graduate students and faculty to provide mentorship and has several project types that vary in level of student involvement. The program is designed to provide a comprehensive research experience, with an emphasis on including the student in pre- and post-trial activities beyond data collection. A majority of students that complete the undergraduate research program enter graduate or veterinary degree programs upon completion of their undergraduate work and cite undergraduate research as a critical step in their career selection process and professional development.

This book was released on 2013 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A total of 6,858 pigs were used in 6 experiments to evaluate the effects of crude glycerol, dried distillers grains with solubles (DDGS), Ractopamine HCl (RAC), NutriDense corn, and feeder adjustment on growing and finishing pig performance. In Exp. 1, pigs were fed diets with 0, 2.5, or 5% crude glycerol with 0 or 20% DDGS. Adding DDGS increased ADFI and decreased G:F with no differences for pigs fed glycerol. Neither glycerol nor DDGS affected any carcass characteristics. Pigs fed DDGS had increased iodine value in carcass fat. In Exp. 2, pigs were fed diets with 0 or 5% glycerol with 0 or 7.5 ppm RAC. Feeding RAC increased ADG and G:F and decreased ADFI while glycerol tended to improve G:F. Ractopamine HCl improved carcass traits. Loin chop drip loss worsened when glycerol and RAC were added separately, however, drip loss decreased when the combination of both were fed. Glycerol did not affect loin characteristics. Neither RAC nor glycerol influenced iodine value of carcass fat. Exp. 3 and 4 were conducted to determine the 4th limiting amino acid in diets containing NutriDense corn. In Exp. 3, pigs fed the positive control and the diet with added Ile, Trp, and Val (in combination) had greater ADG. Pigs fed added Ile or Trp had greater ADG than pigs fed the negative control indicates these amino acids were co-4th limiting for 37 to 59 kg pigs. In Exp. 4, pigs fed the positive control, added Trp, or the combination of added Ile, Trp and Val had greater ADG then pigs fed the negative control or pigs fed either Ile or Val indicates these amino acids were co-4th limiting for 77 to 100 kg pigs. Exp. 5 and 6 evaluated feeder adjustment on growth performance of finishing pigs. In Exp. 5, reducing feeder opening decreased ADFI. In Exp. 6, pigs were fed at three feeder opening and either a corn-soybean meal or byproduct-based diet. Diet type did not affect pig performance. Widening feeder openings increased ADG and ADFI. Feeder setting tended to influence G:F with the best G:F at the intermediate opening.

This book was released on 2014 with total page 117 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ethanol plants are centrifuging off oil from the thin stillage stream as it has added market value currently. The impact of oil removal on cattle performance has been minimally researched. Thus four trials, one growing, one digestion, and two feedlot, were designed to determine the energy and feeding value of de-oiled distillers grains in beef cattle diets.In growing cattle diets, diet concentration of modified distillers grains plus solubles (MDGS) impacted cattle performance more than oil content. Ending BW, ADG, and G:F did not differ between cattle fed de-oiled or full fat MDGS, however cattle fed de-oiled MDGS had lower DMI than those fed full fat MDGS. No significant differences in fiber digestibility were observed between de-oiled and full fat MDGS treatments. The energy value of de-oiled MDGS in growing cattle diets was calculated to be 124% the value of corn.In finishing steer diets, increasing diet concentrations of de-oiled MDGS increased G:F. However, decreasing MDGS fat content from 12.0% to 7.2% decreased steer performance by 3.4%. No significant interactions were observed when increasing concentrations of de-oiled wet distillers grains plus solubles (WDGS) were fed with steam flaked (SFC) or dry rolled corn (DRC). Comparison of steer performance when de-oiled and full fat WDGS are fed in SFC and DRC diets resulted in no significant differences also.In growing and finishing diets small differences in cattle performance have been observed. Energy values for distillers grain in growing diets are still high with no improvements in fiber digestibility being observed. In finishing diets where distillers grains were fed at 30-35%, de-oiled distillers grains have 89% the feeding value of full fat distillers grain.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Six experiments were completed to determine factors influencing the use of distillers dried grains with solubles (DDGS) in diets for nursery and finishing pigs. In Exp. 1, 105 nursery pigs were fed corn-soybean meal (SBM) based diets with CP concentrations of 22.5, 25, and 27.5%. Overall ADG, ADFI, and G:F were not affected by increasing CP (P> 0.19). In Exp. 2, 105 nursery pigs were fed excess CP from SBM and DDGS. Overall ADG, ADFI, and G:F for pigs fed the control diet were not different from those fed the high CP treatments (P> 0.12). However, pigs fed the DDGS treatment had lower G:F than pigs fed the corn-soy diet with similar CP content (P 0.04). For Exp. 3, 176 finishing pigs were fed diets with CP concentrations increasing from 12 to 18%. Increasing CP had no effect (P 0.20) on ADG, ADFI, G:F, and hot carcass weight (HCW). For Exp. 4, 180 finishing pigs were fed excess dietary CP from SBM and DDGS. Pigs fed diets with high CP had lower ADG, ADFI, and HCW, but these results were caused by the diet with 40% DDGS (SBM vs DDGS, P 0.001). For Exp. 5, 224 nursery pigs were used to determine the effects of extrusion processing on the nutritional value of DDGS. Overall ADG and ADFI were greater for pigs fed the corn-soy control compared to the DDGS treatments (P

This book was released on 2008 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two experiments were conducted to determine the effects of dried distillers grains with solubles (DDGS) on pork loin and fat quality. In the first experiment, 1,160 barrows (PIC) were used in a 70-d study to determine the influence of DDGS and glycerol on pork loin and fat quality attributes. Barrows were fed a corn-soybean meal based diet with the addition of selected levels of DDGS (0 or 20%) and glycerol (0, 2.5, or 5%) feed stuffs. Loins from the two heaviest pigs in each pen were removed for evaluation of pork loin and fat quality. Experiment two was a pilot study, in which eight non-pregnant sows were fed either 0 or 50% DDGS with a corn soybean meal based diet for 92-d. In the first experiment, there were no DDGS x glycerol interactions for purge loss %, instrumental color (L*a*b*), visual color, marbling score, drip loss %, visual color, pH, Warner-Bratzler shear force (WBSF), cook loss %, myofibrillar tenderness, juiciness, pork flavor intensity, connective tissue amount, and overall tenderness. There was a DDGS x glycerol interaction (P0.03) for off-flavor intensity. Pigs fed diets with 20% DDGS had higher WBSF values, lower myofibrillar tenderness, lower overall tenderness scores, lower connective tissue scores, and had more off-flavors (P0.05). Loin fatty acid analysis revealed an increase in palmitoleic, linoleic, and eicosadienoic acids (P
Download or read book INRA feeding system for ruminants written by INRA and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2023-11-27 with total page 639 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The INRA Feeding System for Ruminants has been renewed to better address emerging challenges for animal nutrition: prevision of productive responses, product quality, animal health and emissions to the environment, in a larger extent of breeding contexts. The new system is mainly built from meta-analyses of large data bases, and modelling. The dietary supply model accounts for digestive interactions and flows of individual nutrients, so that feed values depend on the final ration. Animal requirements account for variability in metabolic efficiency. Various productive and non-productive animal responses to diets are quantified. This book presents the whole system for dairy and meat, large and small ruminant production, including specificities for tropical and Mediterranean areas. The first two sections present biological concepts and equations (with their field of application and statistical accuracy) used to predict intake (including at grazing) and nutrient supply (Section 1), animal’s requirements and multiple responses to diets (Section 2). They apply to net energy, metabolisable protein and amino acids, water, minerals and vitamins. Section 3 presents the use of concepts and equations in rationing with two purposes: (1) diet calculation for a given performance objective; and (2) prediction of the multiple responses of animal to diet changes. Section 4 displays the tables of feed values, and their prevision. All the equations and concepts are embedded in the fifth version of INRAtion® software for practical use.

This book was released on 2011 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two experiments were performed to determine the effect of corn distiller's dried grains with solubles on meat quality when fed at two different inclusion levels, as well as to investigate the effectiveness of specific feed additives in mitigating any possible quality issues following long-term storage. In the first experiment, the shelf-life of fresh pork from finishing pigs fed 20% distiller's dried grains with solubles (DDGS), ractopamine hydrochloride, and conjugated linoleic acid was evaluated. Pork loins were portioned into one of three storage conditions for a specified amount of time and then placed on retail display. Inclusion of conjugated linoleic acid aided in mitigating effects of DDGS. Storage method altered color values regardless of diet (P

This book was released on 2014 with total page 73 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As ethanol production continues to increase, so does the use of dried distiller's grains with solubles (DDGS) in swine diets. The effects of high concentrations of DDGS on growing/finishing pigs has caused problems with growth performance, carcass characteristics, fat quality, and processed meats. This is due to the high fiber content and elevated levels of unsaturated fats in of the diet. Since DDGS fiber is a complex carbohydrate pigs cannot digest, the use of carbohydrases to improve growth performance is reasonable. Carbohydrase enzymes may be able to help improve fat quality, however the effect of carbohydrase enzymes on fat quality has not been thoroughly researched and the effect on processed pork products has not been examined. Therefore, the objective of these experiments was to evaluate the effects of two carbohydrase enzymes on growth performance, carcass traits and quality, fat quality, and two types of processed pork products (fresh bratwurst and ring bologna) from pigs fed a diet containing 30% DDGS. Pigs were fed a one of two corn/soybean meal/DDGS diets, the only difference being the enzyme group received a combination of two carboghydrase enzymes at the expense of corn. While the pigws were alive growth performance was documented. After the pigs were humanely slaughtered, carcass traits and quality where documented. There was no effect of enzymes on any growth performance or carcass values recorded except for a slight change in the color of the loin. There was no effect of diet on the fat quality. There was a minimal effect on the ring bologna. The biggest influence of enzyme was on the bratwurst. Enzymes had a negative effect on bratwurst quality over time on some qualities. However, other qualities of the bratwursts were positively affected. These results suggest carbohydrase enzymes in a diet containing 30% DDGS does not significantly affect growth performance or carcass characteristics of growing/finishing barrows. However, they do indicate that more research is needed to better understand the effect of carbohydrase enzymes on fat quality and more importantly, processed pork quality.
