“…Results from the present study are in agreement with the contemporary research where in, it was observed that 15 to 25% CM could be included in weaned pig diets without any negative effects on growth performance (Landero et al, 2011;Seneviratne et al, 2011;Sanjayan et al, 2014;Parr et al, 2015). In sows, inclusion of 10% rapeseed meal in gestation and lactation diets had no deleterious effect on sow reproductive and suckling piglet performance (Flipot and Dufour, 1977;Quiniou et al, 2012). Quiniou et al (2012) also observed no effect on ADFI in sows fed CM when such diets were formulated on similar NE values.…”

“…Moreover, feeding high fiber diets during pregnancy has shown to reduce aggressive behavior in sows mainly due to reduced hunger (Ramonet et al, 1999;Danielsen and Vestergaard, 2001). Still, the highest recommended inclusion level of CM in diets of lactating sows based on available literature was up to around 20% (Flipot and Dufour, 1977;King et al, 2001;Quiniou et al, 2012).…”

The objectives of this research were to determine the effects of high inclusion of canola meal (CM) in gestation and lactation diets on lactation performance, milk composition, energy and nutrient digestibility, and gut health in sows and suckling piglet performance. Standardized ileal digestibility (SID) of CP and AA and standardized total tract digestibility (STTD) of P in CM fed to gestating and lactating sows with or without a multi-enzyme complex (MC) was also determined. In Study 1, results showed no differences in sow and litter performance when soybean meal was replaced with increasing levels of CM in lactation diets. However, energy and nutrient digestibilities were reduced with increasing dietary CM inclusion, probably due to increased fiber content. Results indicated that inclusion of up to 30% CM in lactation diet could support satisfactory sow and suckling piglet performance. Results from Study 2 indicated that up to 30% CM could be included in sow diets as a sole protein source from early gestation until weaning without affecting sow and suckling piglet performance, energy and nutrient digestibility, along with an increase in the abundance of beneficial bacteria in the gut. Furthermore, enzyme supplementation improved P digestibility post-farrowing in sows fed CM-containing diets. From

“…Considerable advantages have generally been found in the use of low-glucosinolate rapeseed meals. For example, Flipot & Dufour (1977) found that inclusion at IOO g/kg of ration for gestating and lactating gilts caused no significant detrimental effects on reproductive performance or on subsequent performance of their litters. The levels for breeding and other classes of pigs, recommended as a result of Canadian experiences, are shown in Table 3.…”
