<b>Utilization and effect of shrimp waste meal in the performance and characteristics of broiler (Litopeneaus Vannamei)</b> - DOI: 10.4025/actascianimsci.v28i3.40
Abstract
This experiment was to evaluate the performance of broiler chickens feed with different levels of shrimp meal (SM) in their diet. In this experiment 240 broiler chickens were distributed at a complete randomized design in five treatments and four replications of 12 broiler chickens per experimental unit. The levels of SM were 0, 3, 6, 9 e 12% added to zea mays and soybean-meal ration based. These rations were fed to 1-day-old broiler chicks for 6 weeks (3 weeks of starter rations and 3 weeks of finished ration). Only the weight gain presented significant difference with effects on shrimp meal levels in the ration. The shrimp waste meal (Litopenaeus vannamei) resulted in a quadratic effect (P<0.05), where the best level included was 5.46 and 5.87% for 1-21 and 22-42 day-old, respectively. The increasing levels of SM inclusion improved the pigmentation of the birds’ food-padDownloads
