Posted in: Economics, Nutrition, Pork Insight Articles by admin on July 13, 2017

The conclusions from the studies discussed in this presentation found that:

• Pulses are a good protein complement for wheat and barley, not for com
• The net energy value or the pulses is
  • lower than that of wheat
  • higher than that of soybean meal
• The level of nntinutritional factors in pulses is genernlly too low to affect significnntly the perfonnnnces of the pig
• The availability of the amino acids of pulses for the pig might be lower than that predicted by their digestibility
• Pulses can account for 30 to 40 % of the diet of growing pig as long as the diets ore correctly balanced, namely in Tryptophan and methionine
