Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station Research Reports
Three hundred and sixty early-weaned barrows were fed diets containing increasing levels of added Zn from zinc oxide (0, 50, 100, 200, 400, 800, 1,600, 2,400, and 3,200 ppm). From d 11 to 21, growth performance improved with up to 100 ppm of added Zn but was not improved further until pigs were fed 3,200 ppm of added Zn. From d 21 to 36, pigs fed 100 ppm of Zn had the best growth performance. These results suggest that a pig's basal Zn requirement is met with 100 ppm of added Zn from zinc oxide, but adding 3,200 ppm Zn …

Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station Research Reports
Three hundred and sixty early-weaned barrows were fed either a control diet; diets containing added Zn (l00, 200, 300, 400, or 500 ppm) from zinc sulfate or a zinc amino acid complex (AvailaZn); or a diet containing 3,000 ppm of additional Zn from zinc oxide. All diets contained 165 ppm of Zn from zinc oxide from the trace mineral premix. Pigs fed 3,000 ppm of Zn from zinc oxide had maximum growth performance compared to those fed other diets, whereas those fed added zinc sulfate and AvailaZn showed intermediate results relative to the negative control and the 3,000 ppm of …

Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station Research Reports
A total of 360 pigs (initially 11.5 lb and 16 d of age) was fed a negative control diet containing no added Zn; one of six diets containing 165 ppm Zn from zinc oxide from the trace mineral premix and added AvailaZn (0, 100,200, 300,400, or 500 ppm of Zn); or a positive control diet containing 3,165 ppm added Zn from zinc oxide. Pigs fed the positive control diet had higher (P<.02)ADG and ADFI compared to pigs in all other treatments for the duration of the trial. Pigs fed diets containing Availazn had numerically higher ADG and ADFI than pigs fed diets containing no added Zn for the entire trial. These results are similar to previous research showing maximum growth performance exhibited by pigs fed high levels (3,000 ppm) of Zn from zinc oxide.; Swine Day, Manhattan, KS, November 19, 1998

Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station Research Reports
Three hundred and sixty early-weaned pigs were fed either a control diet containing no added Zn; diets containing added Zn (100, 200, or 400 ppm) from zinc sulfate or a combination of zinc sulfate and zinc oxide (50:50 ratio); or a diet containing 3,000 ppm of added Zn from zinc oxide. No additive effects on growth performance were observed with combinations of zinc sulfate and zinc oxide. Increasing levels of zinc sulfate or increasing the combination of zinc sulfate and zinc oxide had no effect on growth performance. Average daily gain and ADFI were highest for pigs fed diets containing …
