Formulate a diet to meet the Lys requirement (total basis) of a
60 lb pig. The diet should include:
Corn
SBM (with hulls; 43.8% CP)
2% choice white grease
0.5% TM premix
0.30% Vit premix
2% dicalcium phosphate
1% limestone
0.25% salt

What is the Ca and P content of your diet? Show your

contain Ca and P in your calculations)
A high quality and inexpensive source of hard red spring wheat
has become available. You would like to incorporate some of
this wheat into your late finishing pig diets (100-120 kg).
However, you don’t want the wheat inclusion level to be too high,
so you have decided to fix the wheat inclusion level at 10%
of the corn inclusion level. Using corn, SBM
(hulled), and hard red spring wheat, formulate a diet to meet the
CP requirement. Leave 4%
space in the diet for premixes and additives. Show
