The abstract for a study on hulless low-phytate diets. Regular barley, a hulless low-phytate, or a hullness low-phytate with added phytase diets were randomly assigned to growing pigs. It was found that average daily gain and total tract digestibility was higher for the hulless low-phytate diet than regular barley, and added phytase further improved feed efficiency and nutrient utilization.
