Growth performance, carcass traits and meat quality of growing pigs on different feeding regimes slaughtered at 145 kg BW

This study investigated the effects of feeding regime on growth performance, carcass traits and meat quality of pigs slaughtered at around 145 kg BW. A total of 96 barrows housed in eight pens were allotted to three groups in each pen. One group was fed ad libitum (AL) and the others were fed accord...
