Abstract

Growing and finishing pigs consumed from 54 to 64 grams of Microlite per head per day when it was available free choice from a self-feeder. It had no measurable affect on average daily gain, feed consumption, feed efficiency, or behavior of pigs eating a complete ration.; Swine Day, Manhattan, KS, November 13, 1975
