Abstract: Feeding patterns of pigs have been investigated for use in management decisions and identifying sick animals. Development of models to predict feeding behaviour has been limited due to the large number of potential environmental factors… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/jas/skz366
Abstract: Four experiments were conducted using 1,100 to 1,188 pigs each (PIC 359 × 1050) from approximately 27 to 127 kg body weight (BW) to evaluate phase-feeding strategies based on Lys specifications and number of dietary… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/metabo12080686
Abstract: Feeding high-fiber (HF) coproducts to grow–finish pigs as a cost-saving practice could compromise growth performance, while the inclusion of antibiotic growth promoters (AGPs) may improve it. The hindgut is a shared site of actions between… read more here.
