Adjusting the amount of amino acids in the farm can fertilize pigs

Pork fat content can be increased by a factor of two by appropriately reducing the amount of lysine in the feed by “slightly hands and feet” on pig feed. W9u China Feed Industry Information Network - based on feed, serving animal husbandry

According to the Japanese Yomiuri Shimbun, in order to make pigs fatter faster, they usually need to feed them with a minimum of 0.6% lysine at the stage of their growth of 70 kg to 120 kg. The researchers envisioned increasing the amount of lysine in the feed by adjusting the amount of lysine in the feed during this period. They fed a diet containing 0.4% lysine to six pigs and found that the fat content of the six pigs increased nearly twice as much as the pigs that consumed more than 0.6% lysine.

The researchers believe that after reducing the amount of lysine in the feed, the protein responsible for inhaling glucose into fat cells will become more "viable", but the specific mechanism remains to be further studied. Due to the reduced content of lysine in the feed, the pig's slaughter time was extended by about 2 weeks. Researchers believe that this problem can be solved by adjusting the date of feeding.
