This experiment was conducted to investigate the effect of reducing dietary metabolic energy (ME) and crude protein (CP) levels on growth performance, blood profiles, and nutrient digestibility in weaning pigs.
A total of 240 crossbred pigs (Duroc×[Landrace×Yorkshire]) with an average body weight of 8.67±1.13 kg were used for a 6-week feeding trial. Experimental pigs were allotted to a 2×3 factorial arrangement using a randomized complete block design. The first factor was two levels of dietary ME density (low ME level, 13.40 MJ/kg or high ME level, 13.82 MJ/kg) and the second factor was three dietary CP levels based on subdivision of early and late weaning phases (low CP level, 19.7%/16.9%; middle CP level, 21.7%/18.9%; or high CP level, 23.7%/20.9%).
Over the entire experimental period, there were no significant difference in body weight among groups, but a decrease in diet energy level was associated with an increase in average daily feed intake (p = 0.02) and decrease in gain-feed ratio (G:F) ratio (p<0.01). Decreased CP levels in the diet were associated with a linear increase in average daily gain (p< 0.05) and quadratic increase in G:F ratio (p<0.05). In the early weaning period, blood urea nitrogen concentration tended to increase when ME in the diet decreased and decrease when CP level in the diet decreased (p = 0.09, p<0.01, respectively). Total protein concentration tended to increase when CP level was reduced (p = 0.08). In the late weaning period, blood urea nitrogen concentration decreased linearly as CP level decreased (p<0.01). The CP and crude fat digestibility decreased when ME was decreased by 0.42 MJ/kg (p = 0.05, p = 0.01, respectively). The CP digestibility increased linearly as CP level decreased (p = 0.01).
A weaning pig diet containing high ME level (13.82 MJ/kg) and low CP level (19.7%/16.9%) can improve pig growth performance and nutrient digestibility.
本试验旨在研究降低断奶仔猪日粮代谢能(ME)和粗蛋白(CP)水平对其生长性能、血液指标及养分消化率的影响。
选用240头平均体重8.67±1.13 kg的杜洛克×(长白×大白)杂交断奶仔猪,进行为期6周的饲养试验。试验猪采用随机完全区组设计,按2×3析因排列分组。第一个因素为两个日粮ME密度水平(低ME水平,13.40 MJ/kg;高ME水平,13.82 MJ/kg),第二个因素为根据断奶前期和后期细分的三个日粮CP水平(低CP水平,19.7%/16.9%;中CP水平,21.7%/18.9%;高CP水平,23.7%/20.9%)。
在整个试验期内,各组体重无显著差异,但日粮能量水平降低与平均日采食量增加(p = 0.02)和料重比(G:F)降低(p<0.01)有关。日粮CP水平降低与平均日增重呈线性增加(p<0.05)和G:F比呈二次曲线增加(p<0.05)有关。在断奶前期,日粮ME降低时血尿素氮浓度有升高趋势,日粮CP水平降低时血尿素氮浓度有降低趋势(分别为p = 0.09,p<0.01)。CP水平降低时总蛋白浓度有升高趋势(p = 0.08)。在断奶后期,血尿素氮浓度随CP水平降低呈线性下降(p<0.01)。当ME降低0.42 MJ/kg时,CP和粗脂肪消化率降低(分别为p = 0.05,p = 0.01)。CP消化率随CP水平降低呈线性增加(p = 0.01)。
含高ME水平(13.82 MJ/kg)和低CP水平(19.7%/16.9%)的断奶仔猪日粮可提高猪的生长性能和养分消化率。
