Eighteen Large White Yorkshire grower pigs were divided into three groups using randomized block design and they were supplemented with 0, 5 and 10% QPM maize fodder to the basal diet by replacing (wt/wt on DM) the maize grains and designated as T1
,
T2
and T3
respectively. The protein content of the experimental diet was 18.63 ± 0.25, 18.51 ± 0.18 and 18.37 ± 0.11 while protein
content of QPM maize fodder was 7.95 ± 0.04. Dry matter intake was found similar across the treatment groups. There was no significant difference on nutrient digestibility across the treatment groups. Similarly, there was no significant difference on average daily
gain (g/day), feed intake per kg gain (FCR) and feed cost per kg gain. However, FCR and feed cost per kg gain was found better at 5%
and 10% supplementation of maize fodder in the diet. Feed cost per kg gain was reduced by Rs.7.17 and Rs.11.59 at 5% and 10%
supplementation of QPM maize fodder. From this study it is concluded that supplementation of QPM maize fodder to grower Large
White Yorkshire pigs has economic benefit without affecting the growth and nutrient utilization and can be supplemented up to 5%
in the diet of LWY pigs without affecting the performances.
