Abstract:
In the present study, it was found that the ABW (kg) of young pigs on the day 70 in groups C, T1, and T2 were 15.32±0.41, 16.13±0.17, and 15.90±0.17, respectively. Statistically, a highly significant (P< 0.01) increased ABW of pigs under T₁ on days 42 and 49 when compared to pigs reared under groups C and T2. These results were showing good growth performance in young pigs fed with FLF. ADG (g) in the pre-weaning piglets were 174.27±4.80, 167.83±4.39, and 155.55±4.75, respectively, while the post-weaning ADG were 214.66±8.03, 233.94±20.39, and 235.89±2.82 for groups C, T1, and T₂, respectively. The overall ADG during pre and post-weaning periods were 198.50±6.17, 207.13±1.75, and 203.75±2.22 for groups C, T1, and T2, respectively. Statistical analysis revealed a significant (P< 0.05) increased in ADG on 2^nd and 8^th weeks under control, and 5^th, 6^th, and 10^th weeks under T1. Statistically, no significant difference in overall ADG among different groups but ADG was found good in young pigs fed with FLF as compared to dry feed and a combination of dry feed and FLF.
