x,y—different letters differ significantly (p < 0.05) within the final body weight level group (100 kg, 120 kg, and 130 kg). A,B,C—different letters differ significantly (p < 0.05) between 1, 3, and 5 groups (fed with 14% CPFM during the first fattening period and with 12% CPFM during the second fattening period). a,b,c—different letters differ significantly (p < 0.05) between 2, 4, and 6 groups (fed with 12% CPFM during the first fattening period and with 10% CPFM during the second fattening period).
