Impact Of Palm Oil And / Or Methionine Supplementation Of Composite Cassava Meal Based Diet On The Performance Of Starter Broilers
ABSTRACT
This
experiment was conducted to investigate the impact of methionine and / or palm
oil supplementation in composite cassava meal (CCM) based diets on the
performance of starter broilers. Five diets were formulated and designated T1,
T2, T3, T4 and T5.The T1 was control, which neither contained CCM, palm oil nor
and methionine while others contained CCM at 60% maize substitution. T2
contained CCM only with neither palm oil nor methionine. T3 was supplemented
with methionine only, T4 with palm oil supplementation and T5 with both
methionine and palm oil. One hundred and fifty day per replicate. The effect of
feeding the five diets to the starter broiler chicks on their final body
weight, weight gain, feed conversion ratio and protein efficiency ratio
followed an increasing pattern. Birds fed T4 and T5 ■ had higher (p|<0.05) body weights and body weight gains (693 and vii old broiler chicks were randomly allocated to the various diets at thirty birds per treatment and each treatment was replicated into^10 birds>
