The work presents the results of the study of the chemical composition of walnut kernel cake and its influence on productive performance, digestibility and the exchange of nutrients in young piglets. When using 4%/t of walnut cake in the feed of the sows, the cost price of 1kg of combined fodder decreased by 1,7 euro cents, an average daily increase of 613g was obtained, with the digestibility of the dry substance - 86.8%, crude protein -79.2%, crude fat - 62.3%, crude cellulose - 62.0%, organic substance - 88.4%, and when using 8%/t the cost price of 1kg of combined fodder decreased with 3,5 euro cents and the indices were 608 g - average daily gain, digestibility of dry matter - 85.4%, crude protein -78.5%, crude fat - 69.1%, crude cellulose - 37.3%, organic matter - 87.2%.
