Highlights

  • Two feeding experiments were conducted t o evaluate the effects of including dried biogas slurry (DBS) on the performance of growing pigs

  • Because the biogas slurry contains moderate amounts of protein,[7] it is possible that the dried slurry could be used as an animal feeding stuff

  • Prior to the commencement of each feeding trial, the DBS was bulked and representative samples were taken for the analysis of proximate components.' Representative samples of rice bran and coconut oil cake were subjected to similar analyses.'

Summary

Introduction

Two feeding experiments were conducted t o evaluate the effects of including dried biogas slurry (DBS) on the performance of growing pigs. The experiments reported were carried out to evaluate dried biogas slyrry (DBS) as a source of nutrient in growing pig diets The pigs were fed 'on a low-quality swill (8-10% crude protein, 10-16% crude fibre) and limited quantities of a mixture of rice bran and coconut oil cake.
