[Method] Sixty weaned piglets, 25 days old, were randomly divided into two groups, six replicates each group, and each replicate contained five piglets. Piglets in control group were fed with the conversation feed developed by traditional granulating process, and those in experimental group were fed with the conservation feed developed by post-expanding lower temperature granulating process. The trial lasted 28 d. [Result] Compared to traditional granulating process, post-expanding lower temperature granulating process significantly enhanced starch gelatinization degree of conservation feed by56.9%（P〈0.05）, and significantly improved in vitro protein digestibility of conservation feed by 11.48%（P〈0.05）. Compared to the control group, the feed intake of piglets in experimental group was increased by 21.63%（P〈0.05）; the average daily gain was increased by 27.61%（P〈0.05）; the diarrhea rate was lowered; and the feed gain ratio was improved by 4.51%（P〉0.05）. The results suggested that post-expanding lower temperature granulating process effectively enhanced feed digestion and absorption of piglets. [Conclusion] The paper provides a theoretical basis and practical reference for improvement of production process of conservation feed.展开更多
