Research summary
AI-generated

Jung Yeol Sung's research focuses on swine (and some poultry) nutrition, particularly how diet composition affects nutrient digestibility, intestinal health, and growth performance in pigs. Work includes measuring how efficiently animals absorb amino acids, energy, and minerals like phosphorus from different feed ingredients, evaluating alternatives to antibiotics such as phytobiotics and enzymes, and studying gut microbiota and intestinal development. This research is aimed at improving pig (and broiler chicken) feeding strategies for better growth, health, and reduced antibiotic use in livestock production.
