The use of dehydrated mink manure as a protein source for growing pigs was studied by substituting 7.5 and 15 % (w/w) of the complete feed with manure and a corresponding amount of barley. The manure used had a poor feed value as compared to the values obtained earlier in digestibility tests in minks. The crude protein content was 21.3 %. The addition of mink manure to the feed did not adversely affect the feed consumption, nor were any effects on the health of the pigs observed. The differences in daily gain and feed efficiency recorded between the experimental groups were not statistically significant. The number of experimental animals was small, and a large variation occurred within the groups. The addition of mink manure to the diet resulted in lower weight gain, apparently due to a lower energy supply. The groups given mink manure received less feed units than the controls. No harmful effects of the manure feeding on carcase quality was observed and organoleptic tests revealed no changes in the smell or taste of the meat. No changes were found in the digestive tracts, livers or kidneys of the pigs.
通过用貂粪和相应数量的大麦分别替代全价饲料的7.5%和15%（重量/重量），研究了脱水貂粪作为生长猪蛋白质来源的情况。与之前在水貂消化率试验中获得的值相比，所用的貂粪饲料价值较低。粗蛋白含量为21.3%。在饲料中添加貂粪对采食量没有不利影响，也未观察到对猪健康的任何影响。实验组之间记录的日增重和饲料效率差异无统计学意义。实验动物数量较少，且组内存在较大差异。在日粮中添加貂粪导致体重增加较低，显然是由于能量供应较低。饲喂貂粪的组比对照组获得的饲料单位更少。未观察到饲喂貂粪对胴体品质有有害影响，感官测试表明肉的气味或味道没有变化。猪的消化道、肝脏或肾脏未发现变化。
