Abstract: MOJICA, ANANIAS Y PELLE JR., Don Severino Agricul-tural College, Indang, Cavite, B.S. Thesis "Supplementa-tion of Commercial Hog Grower Ration with Cassava Leaf Meal (CLM)." Adviser: Professor Camilo F. Guevara, Jr. A total of sixteen (16) crossbred weanlings were fed with various levels of cassava leaf meal (CLM) to determine its effect on the performance of growing pigs and to ascertain the most effective level at which CLM can be incorporated in hog grower ration. No significant differences were observed in gain in weight, feed consumption, feed efficiency and the In-come Over Feed and Pig Cost (IOFPC) between the treatment means. Results revealed that cassava leaf meal can be a good source of alternative feeds and can replace a portion of the hog grower mash to as much as 30% without affecting the ability of the animal to gain its weight normally. Incorporation in the ration somehow reduced cost of feeds to a certain extent, thereby giving slight increase to profit of the hog raiser.
