The abstract for a study testing the effect of increasing inclusion of yellow or dark canola meal. Yellow canola meal is higher in protein, phosphorus, and lower in fibre than dark-seeded. For both types there was a decrease in feed disappearance, average daily gain, carcass weight, dressing percent, and loin depth. The feed efficiency increased with increased canola meal inclusion, with the increase being more pronounced with yellow-seeded. It was found up to 30% of either canola meal could be added to commercial diets.
