Nutritional value of faba beans (<i>Vicia faba</i> L.) fed to young pigs

Abstract: The nutritional value of four varieties of faba beans (Vicia faba L.) originating from Poland (var. Kamir and Martin) and the Netherlands (var. Toret and Pistache) was evaluated on young pigs (20-35 kg) in two experiments. The condensed tannin content in the beans was from <0.1 % (white-flowered var. Toret) to 0.55% (coloured-flowered var. Martin). In the ileal digestibility experiment (PVTC-cannula) the experimental diets consisted of 70% basal diet and 30% faba beans (FB). In the N balance/growth performance… Show more

“…The ileal digestibility of fi eld beans and of peas was in agreement with the results reported by Grala et al (1993), Degussa (2001), Mariscal-Landin et al (2002) and Selgado et al (2002a,b), among others, whereas the digestibility of lysine, methionine and threonine in our experiment was several percentage points lower. The differences in the digestibility of amino acids may have resulted from the use of different varieties of legumes (different chemical composition) and the age of the experimental animals.…”

“…The ileal digestibility of fi eld bean and pea protein was signifi cantly lower than in soyabean meal, which may have been an effect of the antinutrients contained in them (Abrahamsson et al, 1993;Grala et al, 1993;Jansman, 1993;Selgado et al, 2002a). The tannin level (Tabel 1) was higher in the coloured-fl owered varieties of peas than in the white-fl owered ones.…”

“…It is probable that the high amount of tannins in faba bean seeds cv. Kodam, 7.2 mg/g, did not have a negative effect on the growth performance of young pigs, which is in agreement with results obtained by Flis et al (1999) and Grala et al (1993).…”
