A trial was conducted to evaluate the effects of supplementing wheat- and corn-based diets with xylanase on growth performance and FCR of pigs from 10 to 18 wk of age. Seventy-tow castrated male pigs were assigned to pens of two and in a randomized block design to six dietary treatments consisting of diets containing 60% wheat, 40% wheat and 20% corn, and 20% wheat and 40% corn with and without supplementation with xylanase. Feed and water were available ad libitum. Xylanase supplementation improved growth rate and FCR by 9.2 and 5.3%, respectively, regardless of level of wheat and corn inclusion.

Two very low glucosinolate (VLG) canola meals from crop years 1987 and 1988 (CM; 1.66 and 0.53 μmol g−1) and two Tobin CM (B. campestris) (10.71 and 15.62 μmol g−1) were evaluated in experiments with pigs. In exp. 1, 1987 Tobin CM, VLG-CM and soybean meal (SBM) were compared in individually fed meal and pelleted diets. Daily gains from 23 to 57 kg were similar for the CMs (VLG-CM 662 g, Tobin CM 645 g) but lower than those obtained with SBM (730 g; P < 0.01). Daily feed intakes of pigs fed CM were lower than for those fed SBM (P < 0.05). Plasma thyroxine (T4) levels were similar for SBM and VLG-CM and were above those from pigs fed Tobin (P < 0.05) CM. Triiodothyronine (T3) levels were lower for VLG-CM than for SBM (P < 0.05) and the T3 value for Tobin CM was intermediate. Pelleting enhanced T3 (0.70 vs 0.94 ng mL−1) and T4 (50 vs. 60 ng mL−1) levels with all protein supplements (P < 0.01). In exp. 2, similar diets were fed ad libitum. Daily gains for SBM were greater than for Tobin CM (803 vs. 744, P < 0.05) and gains for pigs fed VLG-CM was 774 g. Daily feed intakes were similar (2.01, 1.99 and 1.92 kg). In exp. 3 energy digestibility of 1987 VLG-CM was greater (P < 0.01) than for Tobin CM (75.0 vs 67.4% for 30-kg pigs). Apparent digestibility coefficients of crude protein (CP) were 71.9, 71.2 and 71.6 in 16% CP diets. In exp. 4 Tobin and VLG-CMs from 1987 and 1988 crops were compared with SBM and commercial CM using 96 pigs (48M, 48F). Daily gains and feed intakes were similar for the CMs but T3 and T4 values were below those of SBM (P < 0.05). Key words: Canola meal, very low glucosinolate, digestibility, feeding value, pigs

Cull raw soybeans (SB), cv. Maple Amber, containing 17% oil and 36% crude protein (CP), were included as 0, 4.5, 9, 13.5, 18 and 22.5% of barley-based diets formulated to contain 16% CP. The mash diets were fed ad libitum to a total of 53 Landrace boars over the period from 30 to 95 kg average liveweight using a randomized block design with three replicates. Live performance responses to the increase in dietary SB content included a decline in overall growth rate (from 830 to 639 g d−1, P < 0.01) and efficiency of feed conversion (from 333 to 269 g gain per kg feed, P < 0.01). Post-kill measurements indicated an effect of dietary SB level on side weight (from 46 to 43% of carcass, P < 0.01), liver weight (from 24.8 to 28.2 g kg−1 warm carcass, P < 0.01) and areas of lean in the loin cross-section (from 31 to 26 cm2, P < 0.01) and ham face (from 137 to 121 cm2, P < 0.01) for pigs fed 0 and 22.5% SB diets, respectively. Analyses of samples of longissimus dorsi revealed a reduction in CP content (from 22.9 to 21.5%, P < 0.01) and increase in moisture content (from 74.4 to 75.4%, P < 0.05) for pigs fed the highest SB level compared to the control pigs. Iodine absorption numbers of the outer backfat layer increased, from 58 to 70 (P < 0.01), with the SB level fed. Sensory evaluation revealed a significant (P < 0.05) increase in incidence of off-flavor in loin roasts from boars fed diets containing more than 9% SB. The overall results suggested that a diet containing up to 5% SB would be unlikely to adversely affect performance or carcass merit of growing-finishing pigs.

Summary. Full-fat canola seed (Brassica napus cv. Oscar) (260 g/kg crude protein and 410 g/kg ether extract) was evaluated as an alternative protein source in diets fed to weaner and grower–finisher pigs. Four diets for weaner pigs were formulated on an iso-nutrient (about 198.9 g/kg crude protein, 15.2 g/kg lysine, 8.3 g/kg methionine and cystine and 2.4 g/kg tryptophan on a dry matter basis) and iso-energy basis (16.2 MJ/kg dry matter digestible energy) to substitute full-fat soybean with increasing levels of full-fat canola seed meal (0, 8, 16 and 24%). Similarly, 4 diets for grower–finisher pigs were formulated on an iso-energy and iso-nutrient basis (about 14.9 MJ/kg dry matter digestible energy, 178 g/kg crude protein, 10 g/kg lysine, 6.8 g/kg methionine and cystine and 2.2 g/kg tryptophan on a dry matter basis), where soybean oilcake meal was similarly substituted. Weaner pigs (n = 80) were fed ad libitum from 9.6 to 26.7 kg liveweight. Piglets were kept in groups of 4 (2 gilts and 2 castrated boars combined at random) in cages (1.5 by 1 m) with solid floors, fitted with a self-feeder and equipped with an automatic water nipple. Grower–finisher pigs (n = 52), individually housed in flat deck-type cages (1.6 by 1.0 m), fitted with a self-feeder and equipped with an automatic water nipple, were fed ad libitum from 22.9 to 91.1 kg, whereafter pigs were slaughtered, carcass characteristics determined and back-fat samples taken. Energy and nitrogen metabolism data were evaluated in a digestion and metabolism trial for the 4 grower–finisher diets. No significant difference in the intake, growth rate or feed conversion of weaner pigs was observed. The dry matter digestibility of the grower–finisher diet differed significantly (P<0.05) between diets and decreased linearly by 4.5% (P<0.01; SEb = 0.36) for each incremental increase in the canola inclusion level. The digestible energy content of the diets was not affected. Regression analysis revealed a linear decrease [2 g N/day (P<0.01; SEb = 0.18)] in nitrogen retention rate for each increment increase in canola inclusion. The inclusion of up to 24% canola had no significant effect on feed intake, liveweight gain or feed conversion ratio of grower–finisher pigs, although regression analysis revealed a linear decrease of 21.7 (SEb = 5.9) g/day in growth rate with increasing canola levels. Inclusion levels of 16% in diets for grower–finisher pigs were recommended for maximum efficiency. The back-fat of pigs consuming diets with 16 and 24% full-fat canola in their diets had 13% (P<0.05) higher iodine numbers than pigs that received 0 and 8% full-fat canola in their diets. Generally, all saturated fatty acids decreased while monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fatty acids increased, with increasing levels of canola in the diets.

Proximate And Mineral Composition

Field pea seeds from 10 cultivars grown at two locations in Manitoba in 1986 and 1987 were analyzed for proximate and mineral profiles. Cultivars differed significantly in their level of total protein, crude fat, ADF, and all minerals tested. However, differences were not extremely large and were comparable to European reports. Location-year also had a significant effect on the levels of total protein, ADF, and all minerals tested. In most cases, the warmest location-year produced relatively higher levels of minerals, ash, and total protein, and lower seed yield than the coolest location-year.

Silk Worm

The use of Silkworm (Anaphe infracta) pupae as a protein source was investigated for its ability to replace fishmeal in the diet of Clarias gariepinus, African cat fish. Five dried diets formulated at 40% crude protein were fed to fingerlings of an average initial weight of 14.33g at 0 (control diet), 25, 50, 75 and 100% inclusion levels of silk worm meal. The experiment was conducted for 84 days were measured. Mean weight gain (MWG), specific growth rate (SGR), feed conversion ratio (FCR). The five inclusion levels of silk worm pupae supported the growth of Clarias gariepinus fingerlings, the growth and feed utilization were favoured by high inclusion level of silk worm meal. Significant differences (p<0.05) were observed among the treatments, although there were no significant differences (p>0.05) in the growth parameters between 50% and 75% inclusion levels. The 100% silk worm pupae meal inclusion gave the best final mean weight gain of 10.29g specific growth rate of 0.93%, feed conversion ratio of 2.18 and protein efficiency ratio (PER) of 0.012. The carcass protein and lipid contents increased compared to the levels of both at the beginning of the experiment. Even though, there were no significant differences (p>0.05) among proximate composition of the fish groups fed 25, 50 and 75%. The results showed that diet consists of 100% silk worm meal could be used as a complete replacement for fish meal in the diet formulation for Clarias gariepinus fingerlings.

Pigeon pea (Cajanus cajan) meal was substituted for soybean meal in the practical diets for Nile tilapia Oreochromis niloticus fingerlings. Six iso-nitrogenous diets (35% crude protein) were formulated in which heat-treated soybean meal was replaced at varying levels (0, 20, 40, 60, 80 and 100%) with protein from pressure-cooked and sun dried pigeon meal (23% crude protein). Nile tilapia fed 60% pigeon pea meal had significantly (P<0.01) better growth response and nutrient utilisation. Growth was depressed in low pigeon pea fish and also in high (above 60%) pigeon pea diets. The poorest feed conversion ratio was observed from 100% pigeon pea fed fish.

Seed hull content in field pea was used as a measure of estimating fiber content. Screening of field pea cultivars and germplasm showed a range of 7.2–12% in seed hull content. There was a significant effect of growing sites and years on hull %. No significant correlation was detected between hull % and yield, maturity or seed size but cultivars containing high hull % produced purée with poor viscosity.
