Effects of Dietary Inclusion of Avocado Seeds on Performance, Nutrient Digestibility, Plasma Biochemical Profile, and Carcass and Meat Traits of Growing Pigs.

The following highly significant equations ( p < 0.001) were obtained: DE = 15.989 (±0.157) − 0.00452 (±0.00121) × S; n = 24; r2 = 64.9; s.e. = 0.45 ME = 15.421 (±0.154) − 0.00452 (±0.00117) × S; n = 24; r2 = 67.4; s.e. = 0.42 where DE, ME, and S are digestible energy (kJ/g DM), metabolizable energy (kJ/g DM), and inclusion level of dried-milled avocado seeds in the diet (g/kg), respectively.
