<b>Effect of agronomic practices on the nutritional composition and <i>in vitro</i> digestibility of <i>Tithonia diversifolia</i> and <i>Moringa oleifera</i> in pig diets</b>
Agronomic optimization significantly improves the forage quality of <i>T. diversifolia</i> and <i>M. oleifera</i>. Their moderate inclusion in pig diets is viable without compromising digestibility or energy supply, offering a sustainable feeding strategy in tropical systems.
