Silage from intercropping of maize with common beans (Phaseolus vulgaris) as roughage for fattening pigs [PDF]
Maize silage is a high-energy roughage that can be fed to fattening pigs to provide both employment and additional nutrients. Intercropping of maize with common beans was tested to produce a roughage higher in proteinbut was still found to contain ...
