Fibre content is three times higher in canola meal than soybean meal, and may limit nutrient availability. The present study determined whether canola meal could replace soybean meal in weaned pig diets with a balanced digestible nutrient content. Increasing content of canola meal increased fibre content in diets, and decreased voluntary feed intake, ADG and feed efficiency. Performance correlated negatively with fibre content in diets, and was reduced when canola meal replaced 75% or more soybean meal.
