CANADA - The Plant Manager with the Canadian Feed Research Centre is confident the method developed for processing straw for use as a feed supplement for gestating sows can be scaled up to commercial levels in the event feeding trials show the product is of value, reports Bruce Cochrane.Scientists with the University of Saskatchewan, working on behalf of Swine Innovation Porc, are conducting feeding trials to assess the value of wheat straw and oat straw based feed supplements in increasing satiety among group housed gestating sows to reduce the incidence of fighting over feed while helping to avoid over conditioning.
布魯斯·科克倫(Bruce Cochrane)寫(xiě)道，據(jù)加拿大飼料研究中心的生產(chǎn)經(jīng)理稱(chēng)，他相信，秸稈飼料作為一種供妊娠母豬食用的飼料添加劑，其加工方法可以在飼養(yǎng)試驗(yàn)中擴(kuò)大到商業(yè)水平，以此證明產(chǎn)品的價(jià)值。薩斯喀徹溫大學(xué)的科學(xué)家們作為養(yǎng)豬創(chuàng)新組織的研究代表，正在進(jìn)行飼養(yǎng)試驗(yàn)，評(píng)估基于小麥秸稈與燕麥桿的飼料添加劑在增加群居妊娠母豬飽腹感方面的價(jià)值，其目的是減少母豬爭(zhēng)搶飼料的事件發(fā)生，并有助于母豬心理調(diào)節(jié)。
