The influence of extrusion processing on the nutritional value of barley for weanling pigs and broiler chickens by Annette Gale Heryford A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Animal Science Montana State University © Copyright by Annette Gale Heryford (1987) Abstract: The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of the extrusion process on the nutritional quality of barley. Three barley cultivars (Hector, Franubet and Washonupana) were used in the preparation of raw and extruded diets. Hector is a covered barley and the other two are hull-less. Barleys were analyzed for their chemical composition, physical measurements and tested in meal diets of weanling pigs and broiler chicks in the ground raw or extruded state. Raw barley diets consisted of 70% raw ground barley plus 30% extruded soybeans, blended with minerals, vitamins and antibiotics. Extruded diets were made from a mixture of 70% barley plus 30% soybeans, extruded together in an InstaproR extruder (Triple "F", Inc., Des Moines, IA 50322). After extrusion they were blended with minerals, vitamins and antibiotics as with the raw diets. Soybeans were necessary to facilitate the extrusion process. The average calculated fat value of the extruded barley-soybean mixtures was 7.8% However chemical analysis of the extruded barley-soybean mixtures showed an average fat value of 2.2% This low value may have been a result of amylose-fat complexes formed during extrusion, which made the fat less extractable by conventional chemical methods. The extruded barley-soybean mixtures showed higher viscosity readings than the raw barley-soybean mixtures. It is possible that extrusion increased the soluble beta-glucans at the expense of the insoluble, which may have increased viscosity. Chick growth trials, using 1-day-old broiler chicks, indicated a significant difference between raw and extruded barley-soybean diets for average weight gain and feed/gain ratios. Results of chick trial 1 showed that chicks fed the extruded barley-soybean diets exhibited significantly lower weight gains (p= .0001) and significantly higher feed/gain ratios (p= .0001) than chicks fed the raw barley-extruded soybean diets. The addition of beta-glucanase to diets in chick trial 2 improved weight gains over trial 1, but chicks fed the extruded diets still gained significantly less (p=.0004) and had significantly higher feed/gain ratios (p=.0039) than chicks fed raw barley-extruded soybean diets. The addition of supplemental lysine to the diets decreased weight gains significantly (p=.0017). Pig growth trials, using 3-week-old pigs showed no significant difference in weight gains (p=.46), feed/gain ratios (p=.83) or feed consumption (p=.67) between pigs fed raw barley-extruded soybean diets and pigs fed extruded barley-soybean diets. It is concluded that the extrusion process reduces the feed value of barley for broiler chicks from 0-21 days without any apparent effect on the feed value for weanling pigs, and that the extrusion process has an influence on the nutritional value of a feed, but further studies are needed to determine the exact nature of these influences. the influence of extrusion processing on the nutritional VALUE OF BARLEY FOR WEANLING PIGS AND BROILER CHICKENS by A nn ette Gale H eryford A t h e s i s su b m itte d in p a r t i a l f u l f i l l m e n t o f th e re q u ire m e n ts f o r th e d eg ree of M aster o f S cience in ' Animal S cience MONTANA STATE UNIVERSITY Bozeman, Montana May 1987 MAIN U S . - ° p . ii APPROVAL o f a t h e s i s su b m itte d byA nnette G ale H eryford T his t h e s i s has been read by each member o f th e t h e s i s committee and h as been found to be s a t i s f a c t o r y re g a rd in g c o n te n t, E n g lish u sag e, fo rm a t, c i t a t i o n s , b ib lio g r a p h ic s t y l e , and c o n s is te n c y , and i s read y f o r subm ission to th e C ollege o f G raduate S tu d ie s .
