Partitioning of heat production in growing pigs as a tool to improve the determination of efficiency of energy utilization

In growing pigs, the feed cost accounts for more than 60% of total production costs. The determination of efficiency of energy utilization through calorimetry measurements is of importance to sustain suitable feeding practice. The objective of this paper is to describe a methodology to correct daily...
