Researchers dig into protein digestibility of milling and oilseed co-products
2018-08-09 11:00:00| National Hog Farmer
Research results indicate the standardized ileal digestibility of crude protein and amino acids was greatest in brewers rice and sesame meal; and lowest in cassava meal.

Raise pig diet IQ to improve apparent ileal digestibility
2018-05-03 11:00:00| National Hog Farmer
Objective of the experiment was to test the hypothesis that the apparent ileal digestibility of crude protein, amino acids, acid hydrolyzed ether extract and starch in corn-soybean meal diets fed to pigs increases as IQ is added to the diet.

Wheat coproducts vary in protein digestibility when fed to pigs
2017-06-29 04:25:00| National Hog Farmer
Source: University of Illinois Research from the University of Illinois is helping to determine the quality of protein in wheat middlings and red dog, two coproducts of the wheat milling process that can be included in diets fed to pigs and other liv
Roller versus hammer: Corn particle size impacts digestibility
2017-06-22 11:00:00| National Hog Farmer
Digestibility is a major factor when considering feed particle size, but producers also need to look at corn handling and ulcers in pigs.
