Copper Effect of Feed Supplementation on Growth Performance in Fattening Pigs

Copper Effect of Feed Supplementation on Growth Performance in Fattening Pigs

The research was done on 45 animals (fattening pigs) that were divided in 3 variants: V1 = 6 mg Cu / kg fooder; V2 = 31.25 mg Cu / kg fooder (CuSO4 + 5 H2O); V3 = 31.25 mg Cu / kg fooder (Cu - polyphosphate glass source). The duration of trial was 90 days. In the growth period the average daily gain...
