Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station Research Reports
Eight hundred eighty-two pigs (initially 73.2 ± 0.7 lb) were used to evaluate the effects of different bones and analytical methods on the assessment of bone mineralization response to dietary P and vitamin D in growing-finishing pigs. Pens of pigs (20 pigs per pen) were randomized to 1 of 5 dietary treatments in a completely randomized design with 9 pens per treatment. Treatments were formulated to have varying levels of P, phytase, and vitamin D to potentially provide wide differences in bone characteristics. After feeding diets for 112 d, nine pigs per treatment were euthanized for bone, blood, and urine …

Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station Research Reports
A total of 2,160 pigs (PIC 337 × 1050; initially 82.26 lb) were used in two groups to evaluate the effects of increasing added fat levels in diets containing high levels of DDGS on growth performance and carcass characteristics of finishing pigs. Pens of pigs were blocked by initial BW and randomly assigned to 1 of 4 dietary treatments with 27 pigs per pen and 20 pens per treatment. Three of the four dietary treatments included increasing percentages of added fat (choice white grease; 0, 1, or 3%). The final treatment was fed the control diet without added fat until …

Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station Research Reports
A total of 1,080 mixed sex pigs (337 × 1050, PIC; initially 63.1 ± 0.87 lb) were used in a 123-d growth trial to determine the effects of vitamin premix inclusion rate on growing-finishing pig growth performance and carcass characteristics. Pens of pigs were assigned to 1 of 2 treatments in a completely randomized design. There were 20 replicate pens/treatment and 27 pigs/pen. The experimental diets were corn-soybean meal-based and were fed in 4 phases from 63 to 110, 110 to 160, 160 to 220, and 220 to 293 lb. Pigs were fed 1 of 2 levels of a vitamin …
Effects Of Extruded-Expelled Soybean Meal And Benzoic Acid On Growth Performance, Carcass Characteristics, And Carcass Iodine Value Of Finishing Pigs, Jenna J. Bromm, Joel M. Derouchey, Mike D. Tokach, Kiah M. Berg, Jon A. De Jong, Courtney L. Pohlen, Jason C. Woodworth, Robert D. Goodband, Jordan T. Gebhardt

Tokach, Kiah M. Berg, Jon A. De Jong, Courtney L. Pohlen, Jason C. Woodworth, Robert D. Goodband, Jordan T. Gebhardt
Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station Research Reports
A total of 2,162 pigs (PIC 1050 × DNA 600; initially 69.2 ± 4.9 lb) were used in a 109-d finishing trial to evaluate the effects of extruded-expelled soybean meal (EESBM) and benzoic acid on growth performance, carcass characteristics, and carcass iodine value. Pigs were randomly allotted to 1 of 4 treatments with 27 to 28 pigs per pen and 20 pens per treatment. Dietary treatments were arranged in a 2 × 2 factorial with main effects of soybean meal source and benzoic acid. Diets contained either conventional soybean meal (SBM) or extruded-expelled soybean meal (EESBM; Lester Feed and Grain, …
Modeling Standardized Ileal Digestible Lysine To Calorie Ratio In 27- To 260-Lb Genesus Finishing Pigs, Hilario M. Cordoba, Jamil E. G. Faccin, Mike D. Tokach, Jason C. Woodworth, Robert D. Goodband, Joel M. Derouchey, Jordan T. Gebhardt
Modeling Standardized Ileal Digestible Lysine To Calorie Ratio In 27- To 260-Lb Genesus Finishing Pigs, Hilario M. Cordoba, Jamil E. G. Faccin, Mike D. Tokach, Jason C. Woodworth, Robert D. Goodband, Joel M. Derouchey, Jordan T. Gebhardt
Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station Research Reports
The first of two objectives of this study was to determine standardized ileal digestible (SID) Lys to calorie ratio (SID Lys:NE) for optimal performance of Genesus (Oakville, Manitoba, Canada) pigs from 27 to 260 lb. A second objective was to build a calculator tool to help nutritionists and producers when formulating diets with Genesus pigs. A total of 4,485 late nursery and 5,200 grow-finishing mixed-gender pigs were used in 4 and 5 studies, respectively. Studies were conducted by Genesus and results of these experiments were provided to the Kansas State University Applied Swine Nutrition Team for analysis and modeling. Diets …

A total of 2,025 grow-finish pigs (337 × 1050, PIC; initially 88.0 ± 2.68 lb) were used in a 95-d trial to determine the impact on growth by increasing Mn from Mn hydroxychloride compared to a control diet containing MnSO4. Pigs were housed in mixed gender pens with 27 pigs per pen and 15 pens per treatment. The treatments were structured as a completely randomized design and consisted of a control diet containing 30 ppm of Mn from MnSO4(Eurochem, Veracruz, Mexico) or 15, 30, 45, or 65 ppm of Mn from Mn hydroxychloride (IBM; IntelliBond M, …
