Feeding Tests Indicate Optimal Hog Protein Use on Pasture
Purdue University hog tests on alfalfa pasture with 75 pound pigs show protein supplement boosts gains but raises costs. Best economy occurs when supplement ends at 125 pounds. stopping at 150 or 175 pounds reduces profitability. Full corn and mineral without supplement yields lowest grain cost but slower gains and adds 15 days to reach 200 pounds.
