Abstract

Objectives The matching ratio of Chinese herbal medicine compound in feed for the growth and meat quality of fattening pigs was optimized. Methods Eucommia ulmoides, dried tangerine peel, Huangqi, and Atractylodes macrocephala were used as Chinese herbal additives in feed. 5 matching ratios( T1,T2,T3,T4,T5)were set. The basic feed without added Chinese herbal medicine was used as the control group, 180 hybrid pigs of Duroc × Changbai × York were randomly divided into 6 groups, with 3 parallel pigs in each group and 10 pigs in each parallel group. The farming lasted for 60 days. The indicators related with the growth and meat quality of fattening pigs were measured after the farming was completed. Results The average daily weight gain(563.33 g/d) of fattening pigs in T3 group (Eucommia ulmoides : dried tangerine peel : Huangqi : Atractylodes macrocephala = 20:20:40:20) was significantly higher than that in other groups, and the ratio of feed to meat (2.38)was significantly lower than thatin other groups. The highest content of crude fat appeared in T3 group(2.36%), and the content of cholesterol was the lowest(42.34 mg/100 g). The lowest water loss rate of fattened pork appeared in T3 group(32.16%), and the lowest drip loss rate was observed(2.70%). The value of L* and a* in the meat of fattening pig in T3 group was the highest, and there was no significant difference in the value of b* between the groups. Conclusions The optimal matching ratio of Chinese herbal medicine compound in the feed for fattening pigs is Eucommia ulmoides : dried tangerine peel : Huangqi : Atractylodes macrocephala = 20:20:40:20 under the conditions of this experiment.
