Abstract

A growth trial was conducted utilizing segregated early weaned (SEW) pigs to evaluate the effects of time of introduction and level of soybean meal on growth performance. Few differences were observed in growth performance indicating that including up to 40% soybean meal in the diet will not adversely affect growth of high-health status, SEW-reared pigs.; Swine Day, Manhattan, KS, November 20, 1997
