Abstract

Dietary fiber is carbohydrates that are indigestible to mammalian endogenous enzymes, but can be degraded by bacteria in the hindgut. Recently, application of dietary fiber in sows has been extensively studied. Feeding high fiber diets could increase satiety and reduce stereotypic behavior, relieve constipation and improve reproductive performance in sows. This article reviewed the definition and physicochemical properties of dietary fiber, as well as its effects and mechanisms on reproductive performance in sows, aiming to provide a reference for the application of dietary fiber in sow production.
