| Summary: | Abstract The results of the study on the effect of zeolite feed additives on digestibility of fodder and metabolism of young white pigs in Yakutia are presented in the article. Three groups of pigs with 15 animals each were formed for the experiment. The formation of groups was produced by the method of analogues. The control group consumed a ration, the experimental groups additionally received Hongurin’s zeolite at the rate of 0.15 g/kg of body weight with 5g of Kempendiai salt, and in the second experimental group pigs received 0.18 g/kg of Hongurin’s zeolite and 6g of Kempendiai salt. The grinding class of zeolite flour is 1 mm. Feed additives have affected the rate of digestion and metabolism. So the experimental groups digested the nutrients better than the control group in dry matter by 0.22% and 0.91%, in organic matter by 0.55% and 1.28%, in protein by 2.16% and 2, 96%, in fat by 3.83% and 4.45%, in fiber by 7.96% and 8.21%. When studying metabolism in terms of deposition of nitrogen, calcium and phosphorus in experimental groups of pigs, superiority over animals in the control group was observed. The best metabolism was observed in animals of the experimental groups that exceeded their analogues in nitrogen by 0.56% and 4.93%, in calcium by 2.18% and 20.06%, in phosphorus by 11.43% and 20.15%. Thus, the use of non-traditional feed additives zeolite hongurin in feeding pigs provides the intensity of digestion of feed and improves the metabolism of animals in Yakutia. |
