What is the advantage with having a monogastric system?

A monogastric system, such as that found in humans and pigs, allows for efficient digestion of high-energy diets, particularly those rich in carbohydrates and proteins. This system enables quicker nutrient absorption and utilization, which can enhance growth rates and overall health. Additionally, monogastric animals have simpler digestive processes, reducing the complexity of feed formulation and management compared to ruminants. This can lead to cost savings in feed production and improved feed efficiency.
