Level of feed intake did not affect the apparent total tract digestibility (ATTD) of calcium (Ca) and phosphorus (P) in gestating sows. Gestating sows had reduced ATTD of Ca and P compared with growing gilts. Formulating diets for sows using values obtained from growing pigs, therefore, may result in inaccuracies.
