Rapeseed meal and faba beans (RSM/FB) can serve as an alternative to imported soybean meal (SBM). In this study, forty Norwegian crossbred ([Landrace x Yorkshire] x Duroc) growing-finishing pigs (108.7 ± 4.2 kg final BW) were fed a diet with either SBM or RSM/FB as protein sources. RSM/FB increased feed conversion ratio (P = .04) in the finishing period, reduced lightness (P = .04) and yellowness (P = .004) of meat, changed amounts of individual fatty acids, but not of total SFA, MUFA and PUFA. Importantly, RSM/FB reduced the glucose level (P < .05) in meat. Lower pyroglutamic acid (P = .06) in RSM/FB indicate lower oxidative stress in pre-rigor muscle cell. Increased abundance of free amino acids, sweet tasting metabolites, reduced warmed-over flavor and flavor attributes indicated desirable properties of RSM/FB meat. To conclude, RSM/FB in pig diet supported growth performance and carcass quality comparable to SBM and had a positive effect on meat quality.

油菜籽粉和蚕豆（RSM / FB）可以替代进口大豆粉（SBM）。在这项研究中，给40头挪威杂交（[Landrace x Yorkshire] x Duroc）生长肥育猪（最终体重108.7±4.2公斤）饲喂以SBM或RSM / FB作为蛋白质来源的日粮。RSM / FB 在肥育期提高了饲料转化率（P = .04），降低 了肉的亮度（P = .04）和黄度（P = .004），改变了单个脂肪酸的量，但未改变总SFA， MUFA和PUFA。重要的是，RSM / FB降低了 肉中的葡萄糖含量（P <.05）。降低焦谷氨酸（P RSM / FB中的= .06）表示前肌肉细胞中的氧化应激较低。丰富的游离氨基酸，甜味的代谢产物，变暖的风味和风味属性降低，表明RSM / FB肉具有理想的特性。总之，猪日粮中的RSM / FB支持生长性能和与SBM相当的comparable体质量，并对肉质产生积极影响。
