| Popis: | Two experiments were conducted to determine the effects of dietary net energy content (NE) on performance and carcass traits of finishing barrows fed low crude protein (CP) diets. Pigs (60.0 ± 2.41 kg, Exp. 1; 90.0 ± 2.96 kg, Exp. 2) were allotted in randomized design to four dietary treatments. Exp. 1 had nine pens treatment-1 and Exp. 2 had eight pens treatment-1, with two pigs in all pens. The treatments were as follows: 179 g kg-1 CP and 2589 kcal NE kg-1, 134 g kg-1 CP and 2631 kcal NE kg-1, 134 g kg-1 CP and 2589 kcal NE kg-1, and 134 g kg-1 and 2589 kcal NE kg-1 (pair-feeding to 179 g kg-1 CP and 2589 kcal NE kg-1) in Exp. 1 and 166 g kg-1 and 2604 kcal NE kg-1, 123 g kg-1 CP and 2645 kcal NE kg-1, 123 g kg-1 CP and 2604 kcal NE kg-1, and 12.34% CP and 2604 kcal NE kg-1 (pair feeding to 166 g kg-1 CP and 2604 kcal NE kg-1) in Exp. 2. In Exp. 1, there was no effect of CP or NE on any performance and carcass traits evaluated. In Exp. 2, the greatest result of average daily gain was obtained with 123 g kg-1 CP and 2645 kcal NE kg-1. There was no effect of CP or NE on any other performance and carcass traits evaluated. For 60 to 90 kg barrows, reducing the CP of the diet from 179 g kg-1 to 134 g kg-1, adjusting or not adjusting the NE content of the diets with 134 g kg-1 CP does not compromise performance or carcass traits. For 90 to 110 kg barrows, reducing the CP of the diet from 16.62 to 123 g kg-1, while maintaining the same NE content (2604 kcal kg-1) of the diet with 166 g kg-1 CP does not compromise performance or carcass traits. |
