Optimising soy protein concentrate use in pig diets

Recent trials set out to determine the effect of particle size of soy protein concentrate on amino acid digestibility and concentrations of digestible and metabolisable energy of pigs. Whether soy protein concentrate has an effect on growth performance of weanling pigs was also explored. Inclusion of soybean meal in diets for weanling pigs is commonly limited because of the negative effects of anti-nutritional factors, such as glycinin, beta-conglycinin and trypsin inhibitors. However, further
