Abstract
Efficiency on feed utilization is governed by system of feeding. Hence, this study aimed
to determine the performance of growing-finishing pigs subjected to two feeding schemes (T1
Pure Starter feeds throughout the duration of the study, T2-Starter feeds+ Grower feeds+
Finisher feeds). The study was conducted at the Piggery Project of Don Mariano Marcos
Memorial State University-North La Union Campus, Bacnotan, La Union from October 18, 2016
to December 19, 2016.
Twelve growing pigs were randomly distributed into two treatments with six replications, having one piglet per replication.
The results of the study revealed that pigs subjected to two feeding schemes performed
comparably in terms of final weight, gain in weight, average daily gain, feed conversion ratio,
and profit above feed, medicine, and stock cost.
