Growth performance of indigenous pigs fed with Stylosanthes guianensis CIAT 184 as replacement for rice bran

An experiment was carried out with two objectives: (a) to determine the optimum amount of Stylo 184 as replacement for rice bran in diets for Laosian indigenous pigs; (b) to study the effects of Stylo 184 on intake and growth performance of indigenous pigs. Sixteen indigenous pigs of 12±1.63 kg and 3 months of age from the upland area were used in the experiment. The experimental design was a completely randomized design (CRD) with 4 replications. The dietary treatments were: S0: 50% maize + 50% rice bran + 0% Stylo 184; S10: 50% maize + 40% rice bran + 10% Stylo 184 fed separately; S20: 50% maize + 30% rice bran + 20% Stylo 184 fed separately, S30: 50% maize + 20% rice bran + 30% Stylo 184 fed separately.
