  • Processed whole soybeans in growing-finishing rations
    Koch, B.A.; Hines, R.H.; Lafferty, D.T. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 1970)
    This progress report covers only growth rate and feed efficiency of pigs the first 73 days of one feeding trial. Replacing soybean meal with either dry-roasted whole soybeans or pressure-extruded, whole soybeans did not ...
  • Two antibiotic combinations with and without Vitamin E or fermentation product in rations for growing pigs
    Koch, B.A.; Hines, R.H. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 1970)
    Growing pigs fed ASP-250 from birth to market gained equally as well as those fed TNT. Feed conversion values were quite similar. Adding a fermentation product or vitamin E to rations did not produce consistently better ...
  • Use of diallel matings to estimate maternal effects and general and specific combining abilities in swine
    Wheat, J.D.; Yu, T.; Schalles, R.R. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 1970)
    As early as 1926, Danish workers reported that cross-breeding gave larger litters at weaning that gained faster on less feed per pound of gain. Crossbreeding is now used extensively in market hog production. It uses heterosis ...
  • Waste disposal by aerobic oxidation
    Koch, B.A. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 1970)
    Waste disposal and odor control are two important problems in pork production. The odor formerly was called the "money smell" has suddenly become "Environmental Pollution." Concentrating many animals in small areas compounds ...
  • Wheat in growing-finishing rations
    Hines, R.H.; Koch, B.A. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 1970)
    Varying percentages of wheat replaced sorghum grain in rations for growing pigs in two trials. There were no significant differences in performance of pigs in trial one. In trial two significant differences unrelated to ...
