Summary

Opaque-2 or "high lysine corn" has been shown to be an effective dietary ingredient for growing-finishing swine, allowing a reduction in the total protein needed in the diet and thus reducing the cost of the diet. The study reported herein was designed to evaluate opaque-2 corn in pig starter diets fed to pigs after weaning when amino acid needs of the pig are greatest.
