ABSTRACT
The experiment was carried out in a cross-over design with 14 growing pigs fitted with a postvalvular T-ceacum (PVTC) cannula. Animals were fed on wheat-casein diets supplemented with 5%
of different dried fibre by-products: apple pulp, apple pectin, beet pulp, potato pulp, artichoke offals
or cellulose (control). Apparent ileal digestibility of protein and amino acids in experimental diets
were high, similar to the control diet, and not affected by inclusion of fibre by-product to the diet.
