An experiment with 30 Danube White fattening pigs in total, fed by corn dried distillers grains - DDGS was conducted in Agricultural Institute – Shumen. The experiment covered a period of 112 days, from 37 kg of live weight until the end of fattening – 110 kg of live weight. The animals were divided into 3 groups of 10 pigs each. The pigs in group І control were fed a compound feed without DDGS. The animals from the other groups took similar components except for DDGS, which was included up to 100 g.kg-1 in the compound feed of group ІІ and up to 200 g.kg-1 in the feed of group ІІІ. The pigs from all three groups had identical intake of compound feed, metabolizable energy, protein and lysine and different of methionine+cystine, threonine and tryptophan, which were dependent on the amounts of DDGS in the compound feeds. When the experiment finished, a meat quality analysis of 25 pigs was made. It is concluded, that the inclusion of 100 and 200 g.kg-1 corn DDGS Fermodil in the compound feeds had no statistically significant effect with the comparison to control group and no negative impact on the meat quality of m. longissimus dorsi of the Danube White fattening pigs.
