RESUMO

As the nutritional demand of pigs in the nursery phase is high, it is necessary the diets are based on ingredients palatable high availability of nutrients. Accordingly, the floating diets may meet the physiological demands of piglets, since the extrusion breaks the physical barriers that surround the granules of ingredients, improving their palatability and digestibility. This work aimed to evaluate the digestibility the nutrients and extruded with or without the addition of flavoring additives for piglets in the nursery phase, and the performance animals and economic viability of these rations. The experiments were performed at the Department of Aquaculture Department of Animal Production Veterinary School of UFG. In the digestibility experiment were determined the digestibility of nutrients. The experimental period lasted 26 days, divided into two periods of 13 days, being five days for animals to adapt to cages and regularization of diets in the gastrointestinal tract of animals, three days to stabilize the metabolic consumption and five days for collection of feces and urine. To this end, we used 12 hybrid animals, castrated male per period. The design was a randomized block design, with four treatments and six replicates. The treatments were: T1 - reference diet mash, the corn and soybean meal supplemented with minerals and vitamins, so to meet the requirements of animals; T2 - T1 feed submitted to extrusion, T3 -- T2 extruded food additives and flavorings T4 - T3 with feed moisture. In performance experiment we used the randomized block design with four treatments and six replications. The treatments were the same the digestibility trial. In this test we used 48 hybrid animals commercial, 24 barrows and 24 females, to evaluate the performance of animals through the variables of weight gain, consumption of and feed conversion. The results were analyzed by analysis variance (ANOVA) and submitted to the Student t test. Energy values showed gross differences among the treatments. In digestibility of dry matter, ash, coefficient metabolization of dry matter, crude protein and gross energy did not occur statistical difference, as well as the balance of N in the treatments. The digestibility of crude protein and ether extract differed significantly to the treatment with extruded flavoring additives and 5% moisture. The results related to the availability of Ca in the diets differed between treatments with floating diets without additives, that The lowest mineral excreted. Performance, not observed differences in the variables initial weight, final weight, daily weight gain and total, and total feed intake. While, for the variable food (p <0.05), statistical difference, with the best conversion given was the group of animals that received extruded without additives. The results showed that the physical form of ration, both interfered the acceptability and palatability of the diet. Treatment extruded without additives had a better availability of nutrients, probably due the thermal processing of feed during extrusion when compared with the treatment T1. The average cost of feed / kg were R $ 0.49, 0.39; 0.43 and 0.59, therefore the cost index was 123.4%, 100%, 108.1% and 147.2% for the NPK treatments, extruded without additives, extruded with additives and with additives and extruded 5% moisture, respectively. Using extruded without additives for piglets in the nursery phase provided best results of feed intake, feed conversion and lower cost / kg weight produced when compared with dry feed and feed extrusion flavoring additives
