Grains Can Replace Cnrn in Swine Ration
•’ble, p feed value.
d Wheat and barley are the most
valuable small grains used in
swine rations. And many farmers
have just finished harvesting
these crops, providing a good
supply of grain for feed.
Barley is 86 per cent as
valuable as corn, when used in
swine rations. A higher fiber
content accounts for the slightly
lower feed value.
The feed value of wheat in
swine rations is nearly the same
as corn.
If the price is favorable,
barley, grain sorghums and
wheat can replace part or all of
the corn used in swine rations,
says Max Smith, Lancaster
County ag agent.
Swine can be raised on a wide
range of feed profitably, as long
as the ration is balanced. Oats
can also be used to replace up to
25 per cent of the corn in market
hog rations and up to 50 per cent
of the corn in brood sow rations.
All small grains, however, must
be ground to obtain maximum

Higher in protein content than
barley, wheat is only three per
cent fiber.
One disadvantage of using
wheat in swine feed is that it
tends to stick together and
becomes “gummy” when finely
ground For best results,
producers should use a corn
wheat mixture. A 1:1 or 1:2 (corn
to wheat) ratio is recommended.
Although the fiber content is a
little too high for small pigs,
barley is a good feed for pigs
weighing over 50 pounds.
