Twenty four weaned pigs (11.33 ± 0.66 kg) randomly divided into four groups of six animals each and were fed with isonitrogenous and iso-caloric diets containing the multiple enzyme product at 0, 50, 100 and 150 g/ton of feed to a market weight of about 60 kg. The weight gain was significantly (P<0.01) increased in 50 (48.75 kg), 100 (50.08 kg) and 150(50.65 kg) g/ton of enzyme supplemented groups than control (46.70 kg). The feed intake was significantly (P<0.05) increased in 100g and 150 g enzyme supplemented groups than control. Significantly (P<0.01) higher feed efficiency was observed in all enzyme-supplemented groups. Feed cost per kg weight gain (P>0.05) was found to be lower by 3.22 %, 5.22 % and 6.01 % in the above groups compared to control. There was no significant influence on carcass quality of pigs due to enzyme supplementation in feed. It is concluded that 150g/ton of NSP degrading enzymes can be included in pig diets for economic pig production.enVeterinary ScienceEFFECT OF NON-STARCH POLYSACCHARIDES (NSPS) DEGRADING ENZYME SUPPLEMENTATION ON PERFORMANCE OF PIGSTamil Nadu Journal Veterinary & Animal SciencesArticle
