The effect of triticale levels with or without enzyme supplementation on nutritive value of pig’s diet was evaluated using twenty four barrows weighting 59kg, housed in metabolic crates. A complete randomized experimental block design in a 3 x 2 factorial arrangement (triticale levels -0, 30 e 60% with or without enzymes) with four replicates each was utilized. No effects of triticale levels and enzymes supplementation (P>0.05) were observed on dry matter digestibility, phosphorus, crude energy, metabolization of energy, digestible and metabolizable energy and nitrogen balance. The average values of digestible and metabolizable energy were 3,537 e 3,435kcal. An interaction triticale x enzymes effect on apparent digestible protein (DPa) (P<0.01) was observed. Apparent digestible protein for 60% triticale diets without enzymes supplementation was 6% lower than control diet while DPa of 30 and 60% triticale diets with enzymes supplementation were similar to DPa of the control diet and 5% higher than 60% triticale diets without enzyme supplementation. The inclusion of 60% triticale in pig diets reduces the DPa. Enzymes supplementation improves the DPa for diets containing 30 and 60% of triticale.
