Identificación de tres sub-productos agrícolas como una alternativa nutricional en la producción de cerdos durante la fase final de engorde

Over time, pig production has shown progress in terms of productivity, despite not having the necessary technology that requires livestock production to establish a stable business and obtain a good quality product. Pork is consumed by the majority of the human population, because it is exquisite and has essential proteins for the consumption of people. Generally the pigs are fed with balanced products of high cost, which implies greater investment for the producer, who often does not have a stable economy does not provide an adequate diet for efficient growth and weight gain. The pig producers are often also dedicated to the production of agricultural products and if not, they are located in places where agricultural production is carried out, so it is necessary to look for alternatives to feed pigs, based on by-products agricultural that are developed in the area. The present information that was developed as a practical component for titling work was carried out according to the research compiled from scientific articles, texts, magazines, newspapers, papers, congresses and virtual pages. The search was subsequently submitted to the analysis, synthesis and summary techniques where the agricultural sub-products were treated as a nutritional alternative in the production of pigs during the fattening phase. Based on the above, it was determined that pig producers do not make agricultural sub-products viable due to their distrust of the nutritional content that these products possess, thinking that they would diminish their yield, especially in the fattening phase; The most commonly used by-products for the feeding of pigs are cassava tubers, foliage, sugar cane honey, African palm fruit, grains and soybeans and corn paste, bran, rice powder and rice flour, corn and plantain, as a nutritional alternative for the feeding of pigs and using alternative agricultural products for feeding pigs, production costs will be reduced and the economic income of the producers would be improved.
