Effects Of Standardized Ileal Digestible Tryptophan:Lysine Ratio On Growth And Carcass Performance Of Finishing Pigs Fed Ractopamine Hcl, H. E. Williams, M. D. Tokach, S. S. Dritz, J. M. Derouchey, J. C. Woodworth, R. D. Goodband, J. A. Soto
Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station Research Reports
Recent research has reported that increasing standardized ileal digestible (SID) Trp:Lys ratio above 20% in finishing pigs fed ractopamine HCl (RAC) resulted in improved growth and carcass performance, however, this response has been inconsistent. Therefore, the objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of feeding high SID Trp:Lys ratios with RAC on growth and carcass performance. A total of 1,791 finishing pigs (PIC 1050 × 337, initially 245.1 lb BW) were used in a 27-d study to evaluate the effects of feeding high SID Trp:Lys ratios on growth and carcass performance of pigs fed ractopamine HCl (RAC, Paylean, …
Effects Of Different Corn Protein Sources And Level On Nursery Pig Growth Performance And Feed Efficiency, Z. X. Rao, J. C. Woodworth, M. D. Tokach, S. S. Dritz, J. M. Derouchey, R. D. Goodband, H. I. Calderón, K. Mertz

Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station Research Reports
This experiment was conducted to determine the effects of 3 corn protein sources added at the expense of other specialty protein sources or corn on nursery pig growth performance and feed efficiency (F/G), and economic return. A total of 315 pigs (241 × 600; DNA, Columbus, NE; initially 12.1 lb) were used in a 35-d growth trial. There were 5 pigs per pen and 9 replicates per treatment. The treatments were structured as a randomized complete block design and arranged in a 3×2+1 factorial with main effects of corn protein source (CP1, CP2, and CP3; Cargill Inc., Blair, NE) and …
Evaluation Of Cellulose In Diets With And Without Added Zno On Nursery Pig Performance, J. A. Chance, M. D. Tokach, H. I. Calderón, J. C. Woodworth, J. M. Derouchey, R. D. Goodband

Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station Research Reports
A total of 1,296 pigs (L337 × 1050; PIC, Hendersonville, TN; initially 10.6 lb) were used in a 42-d study to evaluate the addition of cellulose in diets with and without the inclusion of pharmacological levels of Zn on nursery pig growth performance. Pigs were weaned at approximately 20 d of age and randomly allotted to pens in a randomized complete block design by body weight (BW). Pens of pigs were allotted to 1 of 4 dietary treatments with 27 pigs per pen and 12 replications per treatment. Dietary treatments were arranged in a 2 × 2 factorial with main …
Evaluation Of Dietary Inclusion Of Specialty Protein Ingredients On Nursery Pig Performance, H. R. Williams, J. M. Derouchey, M. D. Tokach, J. C. Woodworth, R. D. Goodband, S. S. Dritz, J. W. Frank, T. Wang
Evaluation Of Dietary Inclusion Of Specialty Protein Ingredients On Nursery Pig Performance, H. R. Williams, J. M. Derouchey, M. D. Tokach, J. C. Woodworth, R. D. Goodband, S. S. Dritz, J. W. Frank, T. Wang
Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station Research Reports
A total of 1,215 pigs (PIC 337 × 1050; initially 11.0 lb body weight) were used in a 42-d growth trial to evaluate a new specialty protein blend prototype (Protein Blend, International Ingredient Corp., St. Louis, MO) on nursery growth performance. Pigs were randomly assigned to pens (27 pigs per pen) and pens were allotted by weight to 1 of 5 dietary treatments in a randomized complete block design with 9 pens per treatment. Treatments were arranged in a 2 × 2 + 1 negative control factorial arrangement with main effects of protein source (HP300, Hamlet Protein, Findlay, OH; and …
Determining The Effects Of Manganese Source And Level In Diets Containing High Levels Of Copper On Growth Performance Of Growing-Finishing Pigs, H. R. Kerkaert, J. C. Woodworth, J. M. Derouchey, S. S. Dritz, M. D. Tokach, R. D. Goodband, N. E. Manzke
Determining The Effects Of Manganese Source And Level In Diets Containing High Levels Of Copper On Growth Performance Of Growing-Finishing Pigs, H. R. Kerkaert, J. C. Woodworth, J. M. Derouchey, S. S. Dritz, M. D. Tokach, R. D. Goodband, N. E. Manzke
Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station Research Reports
A total of 1,994 pigs (PIC; 337 × 1050; initially 88.2 lb) were used to determine the effect of manganese (Mn) source and level on finishing pig growth performance. This experiment was a follow-up to an Mn source by level study conducted last year. However, unlike last year’s study, in the present study all diets contained 150 ppm added Cu from Cu hydroxychloride (IBC; Micronutrients, Indianapolis, IN). Dietary treatments were arranged in a 2 × 3 factorial with main effects of Mn source (Mn hydroxychloride, IntelliBond M, Micronutrients, Indianapolis, IN; or Mn sulfate, MnSO4, Eurochem, Veracruz, Mexico), and increasing added …
