Swine Manure Management (1996), James P. Murphy
Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station Research Reports
Manure nutrients help build and maintain soil fertility. Manure also improves tilth, increases waterholding capacity, lessens wind and water erosion, improves aeration, and promotes beneficial organisms. When wastes include runoff or dilution water, they can supply water as well as nutrients to crops. The economic value of manure fertilizer is calculated from its available nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), and potassium (K) at commercial fertilizer prices. These values change with the costs of fertilizer and handling practices.; Swine Day, Manhattan, KS, November 21, 1996

Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station Research Reports
Finishing gilts (initially 163 lb) were fed .58% total lysine (.50% apparent digestible) and total sulfur amino acid (TSAA) concentrations of .26,.285, .31, .335, and .36% (.225 to .325% apparent digestible). These values represent TSAA: lysine ratios of 45, 50, 55, 60, and 65%. Results suggest a linear decrease in ADG and ADFI along with poorer F/G with increasing TSAA levels. However, gilts fed .285% TSAA (50% of lysine) had the best ADG and F/G. No effect was observed on any carcass criteria. Based on the results of this study, the TSAA requirement is not greater than .285% total (.25% …

In Exp. 1, increasing dietary lysine from .40% to .70% linearly improved ADG, F/G, 10th rib fat depth, and percentage lean in finishing gilts from 200 to 250 lb. Increasing dietary lysine also tended to improve longissimus muscle area. Results from Exp. 2 indicate no improvement in growth or carcass performance of gilts fed greater than .60% lysine. The combined results of Exp. 1 and 2 indicate that finishing gilts from 200 to 250 lb requires between .60% to .70% (18 to 20 g/d) dietary lysine to maximize both growth performance and carcass characteristics.; Swine Day, Manhattan, KS, November 21, …

Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station Research Reports
Eighty pigs, 40 barrows and 40 gilts, on two commercial finishing operations were used to model growth and accretion rates. Major differences were observed between the two farms. This analysis indicates that realtime ultrasound can be used to develop lean and lipid accretion curves for formulating farm-specific diets that optimize lean growth performance in commercial operations.; Swine Day, Manhattan, KS, November 21, 1996
Determination Of Contract Base Payments To Feeder-Pig Producers (1996), J L. Parcell, Michael R. Langemeier
Determination Of Contract Base Payments To Feeder-Pig Producers (1996), J L. Parcell, Michael R. Langemeier
Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station Research Reports
Risks associated with independent feeder-pig production have prompted producers to seek alternative production and marketing methods. A means of reducing risk has developed through contract feeder-pig producing. Research results indicate that slightly risk-averse producers required contract base payments ranging from $7.50 to $28.50 per head. Strongly risk-averse producers required contract base payments ranging from $2.50 to $17.75 per head. The lower end of the ranges is for a low-profit producer. The upper end of the ranges is for a high-profit producer.; Swine Day, Manhattan, KS, November 21, 1996

Pigs fed diets with soybean oil consumed less feed; grew more efficiently; and had greater last-rib backfat thickness, keratosis, and ulceration in their stomachs than pigs fed diets without soybean oil. Pigs fed diets with NaHC03 tended to eat more feed and had numerically greater ADG, but feed/gain and carcass measurements were not affected. NaHC03 decreased ulceration scores only for pigs fed diets without added fat.; Swine Day, Manhattan, KS, November 21, 1996

Eighty crossbred gilts (initially 83 lb)were used to examine the effects of 50 ppm carnitine and(or) 200 ppb chromium from chromium nicotinate on growth performance and carcass characteristics. In this trial, adding carnitine and(or) chromiun1 to the diets of high-lean growth finishing gilts did not increase carcass leanness. However, the combination of carnitine and chromium improved the color characteristics of the longissimus muscle.; Swine Day, Manhattan, KS, November 21, 1996

To remain competitive, hog operations will need to continue to improve production efficiency and manage costs. Kansas Farm Management Association data from 1992 to 1994 were used to measure technical, economic, and overall efficiency for 43 farrow-to-finish operations in Kansas. On average, the farms had .89 technical, .75 economic, and .67 overall efficiencies. Efficiency was related positively to the number of litters produced and pounds of pork produced per litter. Efficiency was related negatively to percentage of labor hired, feed conversion rates, and capital investment per litter. Pounds of pork produced per litter and feed conversion had the largest impacts …

Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station Research Reports
Diets that had been processed using standard, long-term, and expander (high shear) conditioning tended to support greater ADG than an unconditioned meal control diet. Pelleting was necessary to maximize efficiency of growth, but only with standard and long-term conditioning. Indeed, the best efficiencies of gain were for pigs fed the expander processed diets, with no additional benefits from pelleting the expanded mash.; Swine Day, Manhattan, KS, November 21, 1996

Two experiments were conducted to etermine the effects of sorghum-based distillers dried grains with solubles in isocaloric diets for nursery and finishing pigs. Rate and efficiency of gain in nursery pigs were decreased with 45% or more distillers grains. For finishing pigs, efficiency of gain was improved as distillers grains was increased to 60% of the diet, and carcass fatness was increased by about .1 inch at the highest concentration.; Swine Day, Manhattan, KS, November 21, 1996

Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station Research Reports
The objective of this experiment was to determine if antibiotics used as feed additives and disease treatment for livestock affect duration of shedding and colonization of tissues with Salmonella typhimurium in pigs. No statistically significant difference was detected in duration or amount of shedding of S. typhimurium between pigs receiving antibiotics and control pigs. Antibiotics prevented colonization of tissues by S. typhimurium. The odds (OR= .02) of isolating S. typhimurium in at least one of four tissues examined were significantly less from pigs treated with antibiotics than from control pigs (two-tailed Fisher exact test, P= .009).; Swine Day, Manhattan, KS, …

A 21-day growth trial was conducted to determine the threonine: lysine ratio necessary to optimize growth performance of the 25 to 50 Ib pig reared in a high-health, segregated early-weaning (SEW) system. Ten experimental diets, including two levels of lysine (.75% and 1.10% apparent digestible lysine) and five apparent digestible threonine:lysine ratios (40, 47.5, 55, 62.5, and 70%), were used in a 2 x 5 factorial arrangement. Growth performance was improved by feeding 1.10% rather than.75% digestible lysine. Also, results indicated that the apparent digestible threonine requirement for the SEW:-reared, 25 to 50 lb pig is approximately 55% of digestible …

High producing sows were used to evaluate the effect of spray-dried blood cells as a dietary protein source on lactation performance and subsequent reproductive performance. No significant differences were observed between sows fed a corn-soybean cells-based diet or a diet containing 2.5% spray-dried blood cells for lactation performance or subsequent reproductive performance. Therefore, spray-dried blood cells can be used as a partial replacelnent for the protein source in lactation diets.; Swine Day, Manhattan, KS, November 21, 1996

A total of 317 lactating sows was fed either a corn-soybean meal diet (l.0%lysine) or a diet with a portion of the soybean meal replaced with 5% select menhaden fish meal on an equal lysine basis. Adding 5% select menhaden fish meal had no overall effect on sow or litter performance. Composition of milk samples collected between d 14 and 16 of lactation was not affected by dietary treatment.; Swine Day, Manhattan, KS, November 21, 1996
Determining The Optimal Threonine:Lysine Ratio In Starter Diets For The Segregated Early-Weaned Pig (1996), J R. Bergstrom, W B. Nessmith Jr, C A. Civis, Jim L. Nelssen, Michael D. Tokach, Robert D. Goodband

Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station Research Reports
A 14-day growth trial was conducted to determine the threonine: lysine ratio necessary to optimize growth performance of the segregated early-weaned (SEW) pig. Twelve experimental diets included two levels of lysine (1.15% and 1.5% apparent digestible lysine) and six apparent digestible threonine: lysine ratios (40, 45, 50, 55, 60, and 65 %) in a 2 x 6 factorial arrangement. Growth performance was improved by feeding 1.5% rather than 1.15% digestible lysine. Growth performance decreased linearly as the digestible threonine: lysine ratio increased. Although a significant quadratic response was not observed, this reduction in growth performance did not appear to occur …

A 28-d growth assay was conducted to determine the effects of added choline on weanling pig performance. Pigs were fed a control diet without added choline or diets containing 150 g/ton of added choline. No differences in pig growth performance were observed. These results suggest that added choline can be removed from weanling pig diets.; Swine Day, Manhattan, KS, November 21, 1996
Dietary Methionine Requirement For Optimal Growth Performance And Carcass Characteristics In Finishing Gilts (1996), J A. Loughmiller, Michael D. Tokach, Evan C. Titgemeyer, J R. Bergstrom, I H. Kim, J W. Smith Ii, W B. Nessmith, Jim L. Nelssen, Robert D. Goodband

In Exp. 1, increasing dietary methionine from .12 to .22% (.10 to .20% apparent digestible methionine) in diets containing excess cystine had no effect on ADG, ADFI, 10th rib fat depth, and longissimus muscle area in finishing gilts from 130 to 190 lb. However, increasing dietary methionine tended to linearly improve feed efficiency. In Exp. 2, increasing dietary methionine from .11 to . 17% (. 10 to . 15% apparent digestible methionine) in diets containing excess cystine resulted in linear improvements in ADG, ADFI, and F/G in finishing gilts from 160 to 230 lb. Quadratic improvements were observed for F/G. …

Finishing gilts (initially 163 lb) were fed .58% total lysine (.50% apparent digestible) and total sulfur amino acid (TSAA) concentrations of .26, .285, .31, .335, and .36% (.225 to .325% apparent digestible). These values represent TSAA: lysine ratios of 45, 50, 55, 60, and 65%. Results suggest a linear decrease in ADG and ADFI along with poorer F/G with increasing TSAA levels. However, gilts fed .285% TSAA (50% of lysine) had the best ADG and F/G. No effect was observed on any carcass criteria. Based on the results of this study, the TSAA requirement is not greater than .285% total …
