  • 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% ...
  • Comparison of feed consumption of pigs in two lines
    Wheat, J.D.; Kropf, D.H.; Hines, R.H. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 1976)
    Pigs in the control line ate more, grew faster, and were less efficient than those in the select line.
  • Correlations for performance traits of growing boars
    Hines, R.H.; Conley, P.B. III; Orwig, T.W. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 1976)
    Performance records of 275 boars, beginning at 65 and ending at 250 lbs., were analyzed to determine correlations of performance traits. Fastest growing boars were more efficient (r=-.49). In addition, faster gaining boars ...
  • Efficacy of feeding finishing-pigs to heavier weights on two protein sequences
    Hines, R.H.; Koch, B.A.; Allee, G.L. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 1976)
    Eighty-four pigs averaging 75 lbs. were used to evaluate feeding finishing hogs to 230, 260, or 290 lbs. on two protein regimes. Rate of gain declined after the pigs reached 200 lbs. regardless of protein level, which ...
  • Evaluation of antibacterial preparations on growth rate and feed efficiency of young pigs
    Allee, G.L.; Hines, R.H.; Koch, B.A. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 1976)
    Ninety-six young pigs were used to evaluate various antibacterial preparations on rate and efficiency of gain. Each of the antibacterial preparations increased rate of gain over pigs fed the non-medicated basal diet. There ...
  • Flavor enhancers in growing-pig rations
    Koch, B.A.; Allee, G.L.; Hines, R.H. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 1976)
    Groups of growing pigs restricted to control feed or feed containing one of 5 commercial flavoring agents or taste enhancers consumed similar amounts of feed and made similar weight gains and similar feed/gain.
  • Relationship between body measurements and performance traits in boars
    Hines, R.H.; Conley, P.B. III; Orwig, T.W. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 1976)
    Fourteen body measurements were taken on 259 boars at 65 lbs. and again at 250 lbs. determine the relationship of external body dimensions with certain performance traits. Correlations between body measurements and growth ...
