Nutritional value of high-fat oat groats fed to weaned pigs
Keyword(s):
High Fat
◽
Oat groats with high-fat (HFOG) content for weaned pigs were evaluated. The HFOG contained 95 g fat, 159 g crude protein and 5.4 g of apparently digestible lysine per kilogram DM. Weaned pigs (8.5 kg) were fed diets containing 0, 150, 300 or 450 g HFOG kg-1 DM for 4 wk. No difference in overall average daily gain, feed intake or gain-to-feed ratio was observed between treatments. In conclusion, HFOG can replace a mixture of wheat, canola oil and soybean meal (84:7:9) in diets for nursery pigs. Key words: Weaned pig, oat groats, nutritional value, digestibility, growth
