Effects of continual fluctuation in feed intake on growth performance response and carcass fat-to-lean ratio in grower-finisher pigs
Fluctuation in feed intake either every day or every 3 d had minimal effect on carcass fat to lean ratio compared with pigs fed restricted amount throughout the experiment.
