Maize DDGS may present a viable option to substitute a premium feed ingredient in growing–finishing pig diets.

The iodine value of one fat depot may not be a good indication of iodine value of other fat depots.

Creep feed initiated from day 5 and 10 reduce diarrhea scores in piglets and the estrus interval in sows.

High-viscous, low-fermentable dietary fibre increases the proportion of a diet that is digested in the small intestine.

A reduction in particle size and multi-enzyme supplementation are useful strategies in the post-weaning period, but not in the growing period.

Different feeding programs might be needed for barrows and gilts to optimize the production of high quality dry-cured hams.

Increased dietary ZnO could lead to an increased competition among enterobacteria and, consequently, reduce the occurrence of pathogenic E. coli strains.

The strategy of this study was to test the effects of pig genotype and crude protein (CP) supply on performance, digestive utilization of nutrients, relative organ weight and morphometric analysis of the small intestine.

An increase in intramuscular fat in pigs fed low protein diets is related to tissue-specific activation of gene expression.

Increasing dietary lysine and energy levels improves growth performance and apparent total tract digestibility of nutrients.

A mathematical model serves as a tool to study phosphorus digestibility for different feedstuffs and feeding strategies.

The tuna oil had been supplemented either initially, at the end, or continuously during fattening.
