Digestible Energy Content of Hulless Barley
By Ruurd T. Zijlstra, Dave D. Maenz, and John F. Patience, Prairie Swine Center - Hull-less barley is used as a source of energy and amino acids in swine rations in Western Canada but is characterized poorly in terms of DE content. The objective was to determine the DE content of cleaned hull-less barley in relation to barley, wheat, and triticale.
