A Meta-Regression Analysis To Evaluate The Influence Of Branched-Chain Amino Acids In Lactation Diets On Sow And Litter Growth Performance, Julia P. Holen, Mike D. Tokach, Jason C. Woodworth, Joel M. Derouchey, Jordan T. Gebhardt, Evan C. Titgemeyer, Robert D. Goodband
Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station Research Reports
A meta-regression analysis was conducted to evaluate the effects of branched-chain amino acids (BCAA) in lactating sow diets on litter growth performance, sow body weight change, and sow feed intake. Thirty-four publications that represented 43 trials with similar dietary Lys, but varying BCAA were used to develop a database that contained 167 observations. Diets from each trial were reformulated using NRC nutrient loading values in an Excel-based spreadsheet. Significant predictor variables within three optimum equations developed for litter ADG included the count of weaned pigs per litter, NE, SID Lys, CP, sow ADFI, Val:Lys, Ile:Lys, and Leu:Val. The equations suggest …
Evaluation Of Supplemental Fat Sources And Pre-Farrow Essential Fatty Acid Intake On Lactating Sow Performance And Essential Fatty Acid Composition Of Colostrum, Milk, And Adipose Tissue, Julia P. Holen, Jason C. Woodworth, Mike D. Tokach, Robert D. Goodband, Joel M. Derouchey, Jordan T. Gebhardt
Evaluation Of Supplemental Fat Sources And Pre-Farrow Essential Fatty Acid Intake On Lactating Sow Performance And Essential Fatty Acid Composition Of Colostrum, Milk, And Adipose Tissue, Julia P. Holen, Jason C. Woodworth, Mike D. Tokach, Robert D. Goodband, Joel M. Derouchey, Jordan T. Gebhardt
Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station Research Reports
A total of 91 sows (Line 241, DNA Genetics) were used to evaluate the effects of supplemental fat sources and essential fatty acid intake on lactating sow farrowing performance, litter growth performance, and essential fatty acid composition of colostrum, milk, and adipose tissue. At approximately d 107 of gestation, sows were blocked by body weight and parity, then allotted to 1 of 5 experimental treatments as part of a 2 × 2 + 1 factorial arrangement. Experimental diets were corn-soybean meal-based with a control diet that contained no added fat, or diets with 3% added fat as either beef tallow …
The Effect Of Live Yeast And Yeast Extracts Included In Lactation Diets On Sow And Litter Performance, Jenna A. Chance, Jordan T. Gebhardt, Joel M. Derouchey, Mike D. Tokach, Jason C. Woodworth, Robert D. Goodband, Joseph A. Loughmiller, Brian Hotze
The Effect Of Live Yeast And Yeast Extracts Included In Lactation Diets On Sow And Litter Performance, Jenna A. Chance, Jordan T. Gebhardt, Joel M. Derouchey, Mike D. Tokach, Jason C. Woodworth, Robert D. Goodband, Joseph A. Loughmiller, Brian Hotze
Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station Research Reports
A total of 80 sows (Line 241; DNA Genetics) across three farrowing groups were used in a study to evaluate the effect of feeding live yeast and yeast extracts to lactating sows on sow and litter performance. Sows were blocked by BW and parity on d 110 of gestation and allotted to 1 of 2 dietary treatments. Dietary treatments consisted of a standard corn-soybean meal lactation diet or a diet that contained yeast-based preand probiotics (0.10% Actisaf Sc 47 HR+ and 0.025% SafMannan; Phileo by Lesaffre, Milwaukee, WI). Diets were fed from d 110 of gestation until weaning (approximately d …

Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station Research Reports
A total of 27 sows (Line 241; DNA Genetics) were used in a study to evaluate the effect of feeding live yeast and yeast extracts to lactating sows on antimicrobial susceptibilities of fecalE. coli. Sows were blocked by BW and parity on d 110 of gestation and allotted to 1 of 2 dietary treatments. Dietary treatments consisted of a standard corn-soybean meal lactation diet or a diet that contained yeast-based pre- and probiotics (0.10% Actisaf Sc 47 HR+ and 0.025% SafMannan; Phileo by Lesaffre, Milwaukee, WI). Diets were fed from d 110 of gestation until weaning (approximately d …
The Effect Of Two Combinations Of Direct Fed Microbials On Growth Performance Of Nursery Pigs Weaned From Sows Fed Diets With Or Without Yeast Additives, Jenna A. Chance, Jordan T. Gebhardt, Joel M. Derouchey, Mike D. Tokach, Jason C. Woodworth, Robert D. Goodband, Joseph A. Loughmiller
The Effect Of Two Combinations Of Direct Fed Microbials On Growth Performance Of Nursery Pigs Weaned From Sows Fed Diets With Or Without Yeast Additives, Jenna A. Chance, Jordan T. Gebhardt, Joel M. Derouchey, Mike D. Tokach, Jason C. Woodworth, Robert D. Goodband, Joseph A. Loughmiller
Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station Research Reports
A total of 330 weaned pigs (Line 241 × 600, DNA; initially 12.7 lb BW) were used in a 38-d nursery study to evaluate previous sow treatment (control vs. yeast additives) and nursery diets with different combinations of direct fed microbials (DFMs; Phileo by Lesaffre, Milwaukee, WI) on nursery pig growth performance. Pigs were placed in pens across two nursery rooms at weaning then pens were assigned to 1 of 3 dietary treatments with 6 pigs per pen and 8 to 10 replications per treatment. Treatments were arranged in a 2 × 3 factorial with main effects of sow treatment …
