ABSTRACT

In a completely randomized design,  24 crossbred (LWY X Desi) male pigs (16.4±0.25 kg) were divided at random into 4 equal groups to study the effect of supplementing(%) citric acid at 0.6 (T1),0.9 (T2) and 1.2 (T3) and 0 (T4) to the grower (15-35 kg) ration on nutrient digestibility, nitrogen balance and growth performance. The digestibility of DM, CP, NFE and N retention were higher (P
