ABSTRACT – The objective of this trial was to compare the efficiency of phytase with an inorganic phosphate (dicalcium phosphate) when added to diets with or without defatted rice bran (DRB). One hundred and twenty eight pigs (50% barrows and 50% gilts) were housed in collective cages to evaluate the animals performance in the growing phase, and to determine the digestibility of the calcium and phosphorus using chromium oxide as an indicator and the concentration of calcium and phosphorus in […]
