Treatment 1 was control group( basal diet); treatment 2,treatment 3,treatment 4 and treatment 5 were adding 0. 025%,0. 050%,0. 075% and 0. 100% XOS in the basal diet,respectively. The trial lasted 35 d from 90 d of gestation until weaning. [Result]Compared to control group( treatment 1),there was no significant difference in reproduction performance of sows among four experimental groups( P > 0. 05).
