A trial was carried out to determine lysine requirements for castrated males during finishing phase of two genetic swine groups, based on the ideal protein concept. Sixteen animals from genetic common group (GCG) were used and another sixteen, from the genetic improved group (GIG) were allotted to four treatments. The treatment consisted on a basal diets, based on corn and soybean meal containing 0.60% of lysine and other three diet, adding increasing lysine levels to achieve 0.75, 0.90 and 1.05% […]
