With increasing gelatinization, ADG and ADFI decreased and then increased. but apparent digestibility of DM, CP, and energy increased then decreased. These results suggest that the degree of starch gelatinization has an inconsistent effect on weanling pig performance.SwineWeanling pigsExtrusionGelatinizationEffects of starch gelatinization on weanling pig performanceConference paper
