Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station Research Reports
A total of 360 nursery pigs (PIC C327 x 1050, initially 11.8 lb and 21 d of age) were used in a 35-d study to evaluate the effects of select menhaden fish meal (SMFM), PEP2+ (also known as Ferm O Tide), Peptone 50, and PEP-NS on nursery pig performance. PEP2+, Peptone 50, and PEP-NS are all porcine intestinal mucosa products, but differ based on the carriers with which they are co-dried. PEP2+ is co-dried with enzymatically processed vegetable proteins. Peptone 50 is co-dried with a vegetable protein, while PEP-NS uses by-products from corn wet-milling. Phase 1 diets were fed in …
The Effects Of Feeder Design And Changing The Availability Of Water From A Wet-Dry Feeder At 4 And 8 Weeks Prior To Marketing On Growth Performance And Carcass Characteristics Of Growing-Finishing Pigs (2010), J R. Bergstrom, Michael D. Tokach, Jim L. Nelssen, Joel M. Derouchey, Robert D. Goodband, Steven S. Dritz
The Effects Of Feeder Design And Changing The Availability Of Water From A Wet-Dry Feeder At 4 And 8 Weeks Prior To Marketing On Growth Performance And Carcass Characteristics Of Growing-Finishing Pigs (2010), J R. Bergstrom, Michael D. Tokach, Jim L. Nelssen, Joel M. Derouchey, Robert D. Goodband, Steven S. Dritz
Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station Research Reports
A total of 1,296 pigs (PIC, 337 x 1050) were used to evaluate the effects on growth performance and carcass characteristics of feeder design (conventional dry feeder vs. wet-dry feeder) and changing availability of water from a wet-dry feeder at 4 and 8 wk prior to marketing. There were 27 pigs per pen (14 barrows and 13 gilts) and 24 pens per feeder-type. Pigs were fed identical corn-soybean meal diets with 15% dried distillers' grains with solubles (DDGS). Pens with a wet-dry feeder had a separate cup waterer, but the feeder provided the sole water source until d 69. The …
Does Lysine Level Fed In One Phase Influence Performance During Another Phase In Nursery Pigs? (2010), J E. Nemechek, Michael D. Tokach, Robert D. Goodband, Joel M. Derouchey, Jim L. Nelssen, Steven S. Dritz
Does Lysine Level Fed In One Phase Influence Performance During Another Phase In Nursery Pigs? (2010), J E. Nemechek, Michael D. Tokach, Robert D. Goodband, Joel M. Derouchey, Jim L. Nelssen, Steven S. Dritz
Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station Research Reports
A total of 320 weanling pigs (PIC 1050 barrows, initially 12.6 lb and 21 d of age) were used in a 35-d trial to determine whether the lysine level fed during 1 phase in the nursery influences the response to dietary lysine during another phase. Eight dietary treatments were allotted and arranged as a 2 x 2 x 2 factorial, with 5 pigs per pen and 8 pens per treatment. Diets were fed in 3 phases, with each treatment assigned as low or normal lysine level. Standardized ileal digestible lysine levels were 1.35 vs 1.55% during Phase 1 (d 0 …
Effect Of Increasing Standardized Ileal Digestible Valine To Lysine Ratio On Growth Performance Of 15- To 25-Lb Nursery Pigs (2010), J E. Nemechek, J Usry, Michael D. Tokach, Robert D. Goodband, Joel M. Derouchey, Jim L. Nelssen, Steven S. Dritz
Effect Of Increasing Standardized Ileal Digestible Valine To Lysine Ratio On Growth Performance Of 15- To 25-Lb Nursery Pigs (2010), J E. Nemechek, J Usry, Michael D. Tokach, Robert D. Goodband, Joel M. Derouchey, Jim L. Nelssen, Steven S. Dritz
Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station Research Reports
A total of 294 nursery pigs (PIC TR4 x 1050, initially 15.1 lb, 3 d postweaning) were used in a 28-d growth trial to evaluate the effects of increasing standardized ileal digestible valine:lysine ratio on growth performance. Pigs were allotted to 1 of 6 dietary treatments. A 2-phase diet series was used, with treatment diets fed from d 0 to 14 and a common diet fed from d 14 to 28. All diets were in meal form. The 6 standardized ileal digestible (SID) valine:lysine ratios were 57.4, 59.9, 62.3, 64.7, 67.2, and 69.6%. The SID lysine level of the diet …
Effects Of Feeder Design, Wet-Dry Feeder Adjustment Strategy, And Diet Type On The Growth Performance And Carcass Characteristics Of Growing-Finishing Pigs (2010), J R. Bergstrom, Michael D. Tokach, Jim L. Nelssen, Joel M. Derouchey, Robert D. Goodband, Steven S. Dritz

Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station Research Reports
A total of 1,287 pigs (PIC 337 x 1050, initially 82.7 lb) were used to compare the effects of a conventional dry feeder, 3 wet-dry feeder adjustment strategies, and 2 diet types on growing-finishing pig performance. There were 27 pigs per pen and 6 pens per treatment. The first wet-dry strategy consisted of maintaining a setting of 18 throughout the study (WD18). The second wet-dry strategy consisted of an initial setting of 18 until d 56 followed by a reduced setting of 14 for the remainder of the experiment (WD14). The third wet-dry strategy consisted of an initial setting of …
