Poultry response to high levels of dietary fiber sources varying in physical and chemical characteristics (2012, background): “the effects of DF on GIt health were more noticeable in weanling pigs [69, 70], but they might also affect broilers and all types of poultry species in general [15, 67, 68].”
Effects of the insoluble and soluble dietary fibre on the physicochemical properties of digesta and the microbial activity in early weaned piglets (2009, background): “Moreover, significant reductions in the counts of coliform bacteria and the incidence of diarrhoea have been described particularly when insoluble NSP such as oat hulls are included in lowfibre diets (from20 to 40g/kg) (Mateos et al., 2006).”
The Low Feed Intake in Newly-weaned Pigs: Problems and Possible Solutions (2007, background): “In another study, Mateos et al. (2006) compared the effects of cooked corn and cooked rice on the performance of piglets weaned at 21 days, and found that weanling pigs given cooked rice had higher feed intake and growth rate than piglets given cooked corn, but food conversion ratio was not…”
