Subject field(s)
  • Animal Feed (Agric.)
  • Pig Raising
CONT

Wet vs dry feeding. Within the water-to-feed ratios of 1.5:1 and 4:1 (optimum 2.5:1), performance of pigs will not likely vary. Any advantage shown for wet feed over dry feed is probably a reflection of the greater degree of food wastage with dry feed and the greater degree of lung irritation caused by dry, dusty diets.
