EVALUATION OF GROWER-FINISHER PIGS FED WITH CASSAVA PEEL MEAL INCORPORATED WITH PALM OIL
M.A. DAMISA and G.S. BAWA

Abstract
Forty-eight pigs with an average initial weight of 35.17 kg were fed with diets containing various levels of Cassava Peel Meal incorporated with palm oil. The trial lasted 42 weeks. Progression and gross margin analyses were employed in analysing the data. Inclusion of Cassava Peel Meal with palm oil increased (P < 0.05) feed intake, weight gain and dressing percentage but decreased (P < 0.05) crude protein intake. Inclusion of CPM up to 38.2% with 5.38% palm oil gave a better economic performance than other CPM inclusions.
