Thirty castrated male pigs with an average weight of 55.47 ± 5.3 kg were used in an experiment in a randomized block design, with 5 treatments and 6 replicates, whose treatments consisted of the following: control diet (0), control diet plus enzymatic complex (0E), diet with 5% (5E); 10% (10E) or 15% (15E) cottonseed meal plus enzymatic complex. The following measurements were taken: body length, thoracic perimeter, waist circumference, rump width, rump height, withers height and weight in the different periods of <em>in vivo</em> measurements. The measurements were performed in four different periods throughout the experiment at 105, 122, 137 and 154 days of age. The inclusion of the enzyme complex and cottonseed meal in the replacement of soybean meal in the diets of pigs in the finishing phase had no effect on the morphometric characteristics (P> 0.05) of body length, thoracic perimeter, abdominal circumference, rump width, rump height, withers height and weight in the different measurement periods<em>.</em></p>}, number={3}, journal={Scientific Electronic Archives}, author={Vieira de Andrade, Rauana and Borges Amorim, Alessandro and Gustavo Leão, André and Sá Costa, Simara and Corassa, Anderson and dos Santos, Andrea Luciana and Freitas Martinez, Juliana and Augusto Travaini Grecco, Henrique and Rodrigues da Silva, Jone}, year={2023}, month={fev.} }
