of 9,979 pigs were used in 11 experiments to quantify production
responses under field conditions in growing pigs to PCV2
vaccination, biofuel co-products and dietary supplemental
enzymes. Experiments 1 and 2 were conducted to determine the
efficacy of a commercial 2-dose Porcine Circovirus Type 2 (PCV2)
vaccine. Growth performance and mortality (P < 0.05) of
vaccinated pigs improved compared to non-vaccinated pigs in both
experiments with the vaccine causing a greater increase in ADG
in vaccinated barrows than vaccinated gilts in Exp. 2.
Experiment 3 compared the efficacy of 1-dose and 2-d
