Wouldn't it be the other way around? One scoop of pig feed equals a few scoops of other feeds? Unless hops are super potent?

Sorry don't think I explained myself very well!
I have 10 pigs each having 2 kg feed per day should I reduce this to say 1kg feed and give 1 kg hops or 1 3/4kg feed and1/4 kg hops or do I stick with 2 kg feed and give hops as an extra?
