Effects of EO + OA on the growth performance of weaned piglets.

Item	CON	EO + OA	SEM	P-value
Initial weight, kg	8.35	8.08	0.168	0.167
Final weight, kg	12.46	12.99	0.298	0.122
ADG, kg	0.29	0.35	0.026	0.085
ADFI, kg	0.52	0.54	0.006	0.482
F/G	1.87	1.56	0.138	0.072
Diarrhoea rate, %	12.86	10.11	0.164	0.081

ADG = average daily gain; ADFI = average daily feed intake; F/G = feed/gain; CON = piglets fed the basic diet; EO + OA = piglets fed the basal diet supplemented with essential oils (EO) and organic acids (OA).
