  • Effects of daily porcine somatotropin administration on tile performance and carcass characteristics of finishing swine
    Fitzner, G.E.; Goodband, R.D.; Hines, R.H.; Nelssen, J.L.; Nichols, D.A.; Kropf, D.H.; Schricker, B.R.; Darden, D.E.; Weeden, T.L. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 1989)
    One hundred forty-four pigs (72 barrows and 72 gilts) were utilized in six treatments with six pens each to evaluate four levels of daily porcine somatotropin (pST) injections (0, 1, 3, or 5 mg/d) in combination with diets ...
  • Effects of dietary lysine level on growing pig performance
    Li, D.F.; Johnston, M.E.; Nelssen, J.L.; Goodband, R.D. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 1989)
    A growth trial utilizing 120 pigs (avg initial wt 43.4 lb) was conducted to investigate the lysine requirement for pigs weighing 45 to 75 lb. Pigs were fed a corn-soybean meal diet containing .65, .75, .85, .95, or 1.05% ...
