The aim of the study was to estimate the how substitution of acorn in the meals for Black Slavonian pigs affects the production characteristics of finishing pigs and carcass traits. The research was carried out on 60 Black Slavonian pigs, male and female, kept on pasture under traditional keeping conditions. During the last period of fattening, 90 days before slaughter, pigs into two equal groups, A and B. Group A were fed the same meal as during the whole period of the fattening, and group B were fed only with oak horn. The results have shown that pigs fed with acorn in the finishing period had a statistically significant higher (P <0.001) average daily gain and final body weight compared to pigs fed by conventional meals. Statistical differences was found in the parameters of meat color, release of meat juice and the content of intramuscular fat in favor of the pigs fed with acorn. The obtained results indicate that acorn in meals for Black Slavonian pigs had positive effect on production and carcass traits.
