Slaughter and Meat Traits of Pigs at Implementation of Carnitine in Diets

Abstract

During the researches on pigs at fattening it was determined that implementation in diets of carnitine didn’t have any positive effect on growth intensity of pigs but promoted decrease of forage spends per 1 kg of live weight gain. The greatest increase of carcass outcome, eye loin area and decrease of backfat thickness was marked at usage of carnitine during the entire fattening period. Morphological content of carcass has been changing to increase of meat outcome and decrease of fat outcome.
