Forty gilts, averaging 15,47 kg initial weight, allotted to a randomized complete block design, with five treatments: .49, .54, .59, .64 and .69% of total threonine, four replicates and two animals per experimental unit, were used to determine the threonine requirement for gilts from 15 to 30 kg. The experimental diets were formulated with corn, sorghum, and soybean meal and corn gluten meal, supplemented with minerals, vitamins and amino acids and supplied ad libitum to the animals. At the end […]
