Abstract

In 6 experiments with 359 pigs weighing 30 to 110 kg different amounts of phosphorus were added to the diet as CaHPO4 in 3 or 4 steps of 0.75 g P/kg. All diets had a Ca:P ratio of +or- 1.3:1. Optimum results were obtained by addition of 0.75 g inorganic P with digestible P 1.6 to 1.8 g/kg DM. (Abstract retrieved from CAB Abstracts by CABI’s permission)
