Urine was collected into polyethylene bottles containing 40 mL of 5% sulphuric acid and sampled every day. The samples were kept frozen and then thawed. The energy content of dry urine was determined in an adiabatic bomb calorimeter by a modification of the method described by Nijkamp (1965). The samples of pig urine were freeze-dried in polyethylene sheets over Petri dishes. The content of N in the feed, fresh faeces and urine were determined by the macroKjeldahl procedure (AOAC 1990), while energy was measured by heat combustion. Means were contrasted by the analysis of variance technique according to a paired data ttest (Steel and Torrie 1980). Data were evaluated through the Harvey (1990) software procedure. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION General. During the entire trial, animals exhibited good health and no symptoms of discomfort were observed. All animals were in positive weight balance. A high contrast was observed in pigs fed either the sucrose based diet, as compared to the Jerusalem artichoke based diet. In this later treatment, pigs used to eat the fresh, entire tubers during a period of time, exhibiting a suis generis pattern of feed intake (Ly et al 1994). In some cases, a small amount of feed refusal was observed from the diet formulated with Jerusalem artichoke and soybean meal, thus determining a slight, near to be significant (P
