ABSTRACT
Reproductive performance and composition of colostrum and milk were compared during two
reproductive cycles on 36 sows fed soyabean, rapeseed or sunflower products. Total replacement
of soyabean meal and oil during pregnancy, and partial replacement during lactation, by rapeseed
cake and oil or sunflower cake and oil, did not affect reproductive parameters or colostrum and milk
composition.
