Abstract

This study was conducted to determine the digestible energy (DE), metabolizable energy (ME) and standardized ileal digestibility (SID) of amino acids in Moringa leaf and Moringa twig in growing pigs, and aimed to evaluate the nutritional value of Moringa oleifera Lam. in growing pigs. A total of 24 crossbred (Duroc×Landrace×Large White) barrows of (39.80±1.06) kg fitted with a T-cannula at the distal ileum were divided into 4 groups with 6 replicates per group. Pigs in the 4 groups were fed the N-free diet, corn-soybean type basal diet, Moringa leaf diet and Moringa twig diet, respectively. The DE and ME of Moringa leaf and Moringa twig were determined by a 7-day diet adaptation and a 4-day digestion and metabolism experiment with all feces and urine collection. After the digestion and metabolism experiment, the ileal digesta was collected for 2 days to determine the apparent ileal digestibility and standardized ileal digestibility of amino acids. The results showed that, compared with Moringa twig, Moringa leaf contained higher nutrient content, especially in crude protein, ether extract and calcium, with contents of 26.29%, 6.25% and 2.70%, respectively. The DE, ME and apparent digestibility of gross energy of Moringa leaf were 9.35, 8.24 MJ/kg and 49.26%, respectively, which were significantly higher than those of Moringa twig (7.51, 6.03 MJ/kg and 40.81%, respectively) (P<0.05). Similarly, the standardized ileal digestibility of total essential amino acids, total non-essential amino acids and crude protein of Moringa leaf were 42.05%, 42.59% and 49.03%, respectively, which were significantly higher than those of Moringa twig (35.13%, 37.31% and 40.15%, respectively) (P<0.05). In conclusion, The DE, ME and standardized ileal digestibility of total essential amino acids of Moringa leaf are 9.35, 8.24 MJ/kg and 42.05%, respectively, while DE, ME and standardized ileal digestibility of total essential amino acids of Moringa twig were 80.3%, 73.3% and 83.5% of those of Moringa oleifera, respectively. Therefore, compared with Moringa twig, Moringa leaf has higher nutritional values and is more suitable as a protein feed source for growing pigs.
