Richardson, D.; Smith, E.F.; Brent, B.E. (Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station, 1967)

It is generally recognized that a readily available source of energy (preferable grain) must be in the ration of ruminants for efficient synthesis of protein from nonprotein nitrogen. Therefore, nonprotein nitrogen has ...
Added dietary fat improves growth performance and feed efficiency in growing-finishing pigs under commercial conditions

Tokach, M.D.; Drtiz, S.S.; Goodband, R.D.; Nelssen, J.L. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 1998)

A total of480 pigs was used in an experiment conducted in a commercial research facility to determine the influence of fat additions to the growing-finishing diet on pig performance and carcass composition. Adding fat ...
Added fat in diets for pigs in early and late finishing

Baudon, E.C.; Hancock, J.D.; Llanes, N. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 2003)

A total of 416 pigs, with an average initial body weight of 127 lb, was used to determine the effect of adding fat in diets for early and late finishing on growth performance and carcass characteristics. Treatments were: ...
Added pyridoxine for finishing-pig rations

Koch, B.A.; Hines, R.H.; Allee, G.L. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 1976)

Pyridoxine added to finishing rations at two levels did not improve pig performance. Performance of pigs receiving a 20% crude protein broiler ration equalled, but was not better than, that of pigs receiving a standard 16% ...
Adding dried distillers grains to swine diets affects feed preference

Hastad, C.W.; Nelssen, J.L.; Goodband, R.D.; Tokach, M.D.; Dritz, S.S.; DeRouchey, J.M. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 2005)

Three studies were conducted to evaluate the effects of dried distillers grains with solubles (DDGS) on feed intake in growing pigs. In all experiments, pigs were housed in 10.5 × 10.3 ft pens with four 1-hole feeders in ...
Adding fat and/or sodium bicarbonate to steer finishing rations that contain wheat

Brethour, J.R.; Riley, J.; Lee, B. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 1986)

Adding .6 pound fat or .22 pound sodium bicarbonate (soda) to finishing rations containing rolled wheat significantly improved performance and appeared to increase the substitution value of wheat. Both fat and soda increased ...
Adding fat to sow lactation diets: effect on sow and litter performance

Tokach, M.D.; Nelssen, J.L.; Keesecker, D.; Wolf, B. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 1986)

An on-farm experiment was conducted utilizing 189 sows to evaluate the effect of adding 396 soybean oil to the lactational diet on subsequent pig performance and sow weight loss. Feeding sows a diet containing 3% soybean ...
Adding whey and fishmeal to swine finishing diets

Hines, R.H. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 1981)

One hundred fifty finishing pigs were studied to evaluate the effect of adding whey and/or fishmeal to a sorghum grain-soybean meal basal swine diet. No significant effects due to treatment were observed on rate of gain, ...
