Effect Of Calcium Carbonate Level With Or Without Benzoic Acid On Weanling Pig Growth Performance, Fecal Dry Matter, And Blood Calcium And Phosphorus Concentrations, Alan J. Warner, Joel M. Derouchey, Mike D. Tokach, Jason C. Woodworth, Robert D. Goodband, Jordan T. Gebhardt

Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station Research Reports

A total of 360 barrows (DNA Line 200 × 400; initially 13.6 ± 0.07 lb) were used in a 38-d study to evaluate the interactive effects of added dietary calcium carbonate and benzoic acid on nursery pig growth performance, fecal dry matter, and blood Ca and P concentration. Upon arrival to the nursery research facility, pigs were randomly assigned to pens (5 pigs per pen) and pens were allotted to 1 of 6 dietary treatments with 12 pens per treatment. Dietary treatments were formulated to provide 0.45, 0.90, or 1.35% calcium carbonate, with or without 0.5% benzoic acid (VevoVitall, DSM …

Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station Research Reports

A total of 360 pigs (200 × 400, DNA; initially 21.9 ± 0.42 lb) were used in a 21-d growth trial to determine the available P (aP) release curve for GraINzyme Phytase (Agrivida Inc., Woburn, MA). Pigs were weaned at approximately 21 d of age, randomly allotted to pens based on initial BW and fed common starter diets. From d 18 to 21 post-weaning, all pigs were fed a diet containing 0.11% aP. On d 21 post-weaning, considered d 0 of the study, pens were blocked by BW and randomly allotted to 1 of 8 dietary treatments with 5 pigs …
