The aim of this study was to evaluate levels of millet hybrid ADR 8010(r) in the diets of pigs in growing and finishing on performance and carcass quantitative characteristics. It was used 48 barrows, genetically similar c, with initial weight around 30.0±2.9kg. The animals were distributed in a randomized block design, with four levels of inclusion of millet in the diet (0; 25; 50 and 75%), six replicate of two animals each. It was analyzed the parameters of performance (feed intake, weight gain and feed conversion) and carcass traits (weight and height of carcass, back fat thickness, depth of muscle, percentage and amount of lean meat). The level of inclusion of millet do not influence (P>0.05) the parameters of performance and characteristics of carcass of pigs. The millet ADRR 8010(r) can replace the corn up to 75% on diets of pigs in growth and finishing without impacting performance and carcass characteristics of animals.
