Reduction of nitrogen excretion in pigs. Improvement of precision in nutrient requirements

Torrallardona D.

Nitrogen excretion in pigs can be reduced by reducing the excess supply of protein in the diets. In order to minimize the protein contents in the diets without affecting the performance of the animals, both the dietary supply and the nutrient requirements of the pigs at different stages should be known with precision. This paper will focus on the current knowledge of amino acid requirements and ways to improve the precision of amino acid supply in farm situations.
