A two year report compares five commercial stock feeds with ground corn and barley and with cornmeal regimes on eight to ten pigs grazing rape pasture. Results show daily gains of 1.1 to 1.17 pounds, varying feed per pound of gain from 4.54 to 4.86, and costs from 4 to 4.58 cents. A second test contrasts cornmeal alone, cornmeal with commercial stock feed, and cornmeal with homemade stock feed, using three groups of eight pigs over sixty-one days with bluegrass pasture. Total gains were 514, 483, and 551 pounds respectively, with feed per pound of gain from 4.91 to 5.19 and costs from 4.4 to 8.85 cents. The homemade feed formula lists gentian, ginger, sodium bicarbonate, fenugreek, salt, and shorts. cost about 4.14 cents per pound.
