| Abstract |
The objective of this study was to investigate the effects of yeast fermented cassava pulp (FCP) in diets of post-weaning pigs on nutrient digestibility, the relationship between apparent digestibility and dietary FCP level, and nitrogen retention. A total of 15 entire male pigs with average initial body weight of 5.98±0.15 kg (Landrace x Landrace x Large White) were used in this study. They were housed in individual cages and allocated to five treatments in three blocks according to randomized complete block design. The treatments were five diets as FCP-0, FCP-3, FCP-6, FCP-9 and FCP-12 which contained 0, 3, 6, 9 and 12% FCP, respectively.
The proximate analysis showed that FCP used for experiment contained 13.4%, 17.1% and 2.11% of crude protein, crude fiber and crude fat respectively and 4208 kcal of gross energy. The apparent digestibility of dry matter, organic matter, crude protein, crude fiber and gross energy did not differ among treatments but ether extract digestibility was improved if more than 3% of FCP was included in the diets. Dietary FCP had no effect on nitrogen retention but urinary nitrogen tended (p=0.11) to be reduced when FCP included was included in the diet. It may be concluded that FCP can be provided in post-weaning diets up to 12% without any detrimental effects on nutrient digestibility and nitrogen retention. |
