An Illinois experiment compared two hog groups fed to 237 pounds each. Lot 1 used shelled corn alfalfa meal and tankage. Lot 2 used corn soybean meal alfalfa meal and a mineral mix. Both groups consumed same feed per hundred pounds gain, with Lot 2 showing soybean meal as a cost effective protein source when paired with minerals.
