Evaluation of a porcine coproduct (pro-blend 75®) from slaughter plants as a protein source for starter pig diets

Abstract

Pellet durability index was greatest when animal protein products (dried whey, fish meal, spray-dried blood cells, and a porcine coproduct) were used in place of soybean meal. However, no differences occurred in ADG, ADFI, or F/G among segregated early-weaned piglets (10.1 lb) fed the various protein sources.
