This study was conducted to compare performance, carcass and meat quality  parameters in high-meat fattening hybride PIC pigs fed barley or triticale  based diets. Sixty, 12 week old weaner piglets of similar mean body weight  (30 kg ± 0.4) were randomly divided into two groups of 30 each, and assigned  to one of the two dietary treatment groups designated as group B (fed bar ley  based diets) and group T (fed triticale based diets). The pigs fed T based  diets showed 8% higher growth rate (p<0.05) at 11% lower feed conversion  ratio. Post slaughter parameters in pigs fed triticale based diets were more  desirable than in those fed barley based diets. T fed pigs had higher loin  eye area and smaller suet weight (p<0.01). Dressing percentage, carcass  length, fleshiness, back fat thickness, dry matter, crude ash, crude protein  and ether extract and pH of meat were similar in both groups. Meat from T fed  pigs had slightly darker colour of m. semimembranosus, and higher water  holding capacity of m. longisimus lumborum (p<0.05). Feeding triticale based  diets to PIC pigs has beneficial effects on performance and characteristics  carcass. Triticale could totally replace barley in rations for fattening high  meat PIC swine
