o determine the effect of the substitution of soybean meal and
Sorghum
for cull chickpeas and peanut meal on apparent
digestibility of nutrients in growing diets for pigs; six crossbred pigs (BW=39.1±1.7) were used in a replicated Latin Square
Design. Pigs were assigned to consume one of three diets: Diet with 17.78% CP and 3.27 Mcal ME/kg, containing
Sorghum
69.5%,
soybean meal 28% and premix 2.5% (CONT); Diet with 17.73% CP and 3.28 Mcal ME/kg with
Sorghum
42.5 %, cull chickpeas
40%, soybean meal 12.0%, vegetable oil 3% and premix 2.5% (CHP); and Diet with 17.9% CP and 3.26 Mcal ME/kg with
Sorghum
51.4%, cull chickpeas 30%, peanut meal 14%, vegetable oil 2% and premix 2.5% (CHPN). Pigs were individually placed in metabolic
crates (0.6×1.2 m). The adaptation period was 6 days and sample collection period was 4 days. From each diet and period, one kg
of diet was taken as a sample and the total fecal production was collected. Feed intake (2.19, 2.24 and 2.26 kg/day) was not affected
by treatments (P>0.05) for CONT, CHP and CHPN, respectively. Apparent digestibility of DM (82.05, 82.91 and 83.9%) was similar
(P>0.05) across treatments. Apparent digestibility of crude protein was not altered (P>0.05) by CHP and CHPN inclusion (78.35,
78.47 and 79.23%). It is concluded that cull chickpeas and cull chickpeas-peanut meal can be used in growing pig diets without
affecting nutrient digestibility.
