Oats Replace Corn In Hog Rations Says Iowa Expert
Iowa State College extension animal husbandman E L Quaife notes oats can replace corn in hog diets when corn is short. For young pigs he favors rolled or hulled oats with ground corn, adding small amounts of sugar or meal and minerals. Older hogs may require ground oats soaked, with middlings, fed as a mash. Brood sows and pregnant sows can thrive on oats, with mash for nursing sows. If corn is available a 3:4 oats to corn mix is advised, while 3:1 oats to corn excels when corn is plentiful.
