Cereal flour protein content can be increased by microbial protein action through yeast-driven fermentation. This research was aimed at evaluating the anaerobic fermentation of liquid rice bran with Saccharomyces cerevisiae as a single cell protein (SCP) source for raising pigs. A pilot test for S. cerevisiae SCP production was carried out in the laboratory using rice bran to standardise and find the best process conditions regarding SCP production in a 600 L fermenter tank. The rice bran obtained by fermentation with S. cerevisiae was evaluated for 30 days using twenty-four 21.72±3.31 kg pigs; a randomised complete block design (RCBD) was used, involving four treatments, three blocks and six animals per treatment. The trial had four rice bran post-fermented with S. cerevisiae inclusion levels: T1 0% bran inclusion, T2 10%, T3 20% and T4 25%. Final weight (kg), average daily gain (g/day), final consumption (kg) and feed conversion ratio (FCR) were the variables evaluated here. SCP inclusion in food rose from 8.23% to 13.97%. There were significant statistical differences (p<0.05) regarding average daily gain for T1 (625.81 g/day) and T2 (618.77) compared to T3 (526.38) and T4 (542.77) and FCR for T1 (2.20) and T2 (2.16) compared to T3 (2.54) and T4 (2.45). There were no differences (p>0.05) regarding final weight or final consumption. Diet costs were lower for T2, T3 and T4. The anaerobic fermentation of rice bran improved feed protein content through S. cerevisiae growth and can be included in diets for raising pigs; it has good palatability and up to 10% SCP inclusion level, obtaining good yield and a lower cost diet.
