Abstract
Variety, rainfall zone and addition of exogenous enzymes are known to affect the digestible energy (DE) content of wheat fed to pigs (Anderson and Bell, 1983; Wiseman, 1997; Choct et al., 1999). However, few studies have been conducted to examine the influence of these three factors on the DE content of wheat simultaneously. The aim of this study was to examine the influence of the variety, growing region and arabinoxylanase on the DE content of wheat for weaner pigs.
