Abstract:
This study investigates the growth performance, the response of the digestive morphology of native pigs, which treatment will stretch quality output and variations under different levels of fermented mungbean. The experimental research design was employed to determine the response of the three (3) pigs treated with mungbean for 70 days. The growth performance of pigs treated with different levels of fermented mungbean has a total gain weight of 7.50 kg for Treatment 1; Treatment 2 is 9.00 kg and, Treatment 3 is 6.50 kg and is observed no significant difference on the final weight and the total weight with a p-value of > 0. 050; the response on digestive morphology such as small intestine, large intestine, heart, stomach, liver, lungs, esophagus, spleen, and kidney of pigs shows no variations on their length, width, and weight with a p-value of >0.050 under the different level of fermented mungbean; the treatment output treated with different level of fermented mungbean is observed on Treatment 2 with a lowest feed conversion efficiency of 3.89 for feeds and 1.39 for mungbean. Treatment 2 has the highest gain weight among the treated sample; the intestinal morphology of pigs treated under the three treatments; thus, treatment 2 has the lowest feed conversion efficiency.
Highlights
- Studied the effects of Vigna radiata L. in digestive morphology of native pig.
- The intestinal morphology of pigs was comparably observed under the three treatments.
