A historic note compares feeding hogs with corn alone versus corn plus a blended protein supplement. It states that corn alone required more labor, higher disease risk, and reached market later, while supplementing with protein improved thrift and time to market. Gains cited include 83 cents per hundredweight for corn at four dollars per cwt, even after subtracting two fifty per cwt for protein.
Purina Research reports that blending proteins in hog rations outperforms tankage alone and makes grain feed go farther. Tests at Purina Farm show twelve bushels of corn yield 100 pounds of gain with mixed protein, versus corn alone. The blended chow reduces need for corn, lowers costs, and helps reach markets in fall or spring when prices rise.
