ABSTRACT / САЖЕТАК:
The main aim of this study was to assess the effect of the micronization process applied on cereals and legumes, as feed components, on the efficiency of feed conversion, digestibility, and daily gain of weaned piglets. The results showed that the digestibility of the investigated micronized maize and wheat flakes was higher than that of the respective raw grains. The digestibility of the feed mixture prepared with micronized cereals and legumes was higher (84.74%) than that of the commercial feed mixture (80.27%). The feed mixture prepared with micronized cereals and legumes manifested beneficial effects on weaned piglets’ daily gain, feed conversion, and digestibility in the feeding trial.
