Abstract

Two studies were conducted to evaluate the effects of adding high oil corn to nursery diets as compared to other sources of fat. The results of both studies suggest that addition of fat to the nursery pig diet, regardless of the source, has no significant influence on growth performance until late in the nursery phase.; Swine Day, Manhattan, KS, November 21, 1996
