Optimum Level Of Spray-Dried Porcine Plasma For Early-Weaned (10.5 D Of Age) Starter Pigs (1993), K Q. Owen, Steven S. Dritz, Michael D. Tokach, Robert D. Goodband, Jim L. Nelssen Jan 1993

Optimum Level Of Spray-Dried Porcine Plasma For Early-Weaned (10.5 D Of Age) Starter Pigs (1993), K Q. Owen, Steven S. Dritz, Michael D. Tokach, Robert D. Goodband, Jim L. Nelssen

Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station Research Reports

A total of 290 early-weaned pigs (initially 7.6 lb and 10.5 d of age) was used to evaluate various levels of spray-dried porcine plasma. Pigs were assigned to one of five experimental diets with either 5, 7.5, 10, 12.5, or 15% spray-dried porcine plasma replacing dried skim milk. Pigs were fed this diet for the first 14 days postweaning. Common diets were fed from d 14 to 42 postweaning in order to monitor subsequent performance. During the first phase (d 0 to 14 postweaning), linear improvements in average daily gain (ADG) and average daily feed intake (ADFI) occurred as the …
