EFFECT OF DIFFERENT LEVELS OF TOWER RAPESEED MEAL IN CORN-SOYBEAN MEAL BASED DIETS ON GROWING-FINISHING PIG PERFORMANCE

Abstract
Ninety-six Yrokshire barrows and gilts were fed six, isonitrogenous, isoenergetic corn-soybean meal based diets containing 0, 5, 10, 15, 20 and 25%, respectively, of Tower rapeseed meal (RSM) during the growing-finishing period. There were no differences (P < 0.05) in average daily gain, feed intake, feed to gain ratio, backfat thickness and dressing percentage due to treatment.
