Summary: NIRS is a rapid, cost-effective and environmentally friendly method for evaluating feedstuffs in pig diets. It can predict the concentrations of crude protein and amino acids with good precision and high coefficients of determination. The digestibility of protein and amino acids can also be predicted with acceptable accuracy, making it useful for formulating pig diets.
