Abstract: ABUSTAN HI, ALFREDO G. Combined Multi-Enzyme and Probiotic Supplementation in Broilers. Undergraduate Thesis. Bachelor of Science in Agriculture major in Animal Science. Cavite State University, Indang, Cavite. April 2008. Adviser: Prof Eraiio C. Esguerra. A study entitled "Combined Multi-enzyme and Probiotic Supplementation in Broilers" was conducted at the broiler house of the Animal Farm of Cavite State University, Indang, Cavite from February to March 2008. The study was conducted specifically to determine: the effect of supplementing multi-enzyme and probiotics on broilers via their feed mash in terms of body weight, feed consumption and feed conversion efficiency, and mortality rate; the viability of using multi-enzyme and probiotics in feeding broilers; the cost and return in the production of broilers with and without supplementation of multi-enzyme and probiotics; and the problems encountered by the researcher in the production of broilers. The experimental birds were allocated randomly into two treatments. Each treatment was replicated six times and each replication had five birds. In Treatment 1, pure commercial feeds were given to birds while in Treatment 2, birds were supplemented with multi-enzyme and probiotics via their feed mash. Results of the study revealed tha the supplementation of multi-enzyme and probiotics in the feed mash of broilers did not significantly affect their body weight. Likewise, the feed consumption and feed conversion efficiency (FCE) of broilers were not affected by the supplementation of multi-enzyme and probiotics via their feed mash. On the other hand, significant difference was observed in the survival rate between broilers fed with pure commercial feeds and broilers supplemented with multi-enzyme and probiotic. Difference in means was due to presence of probiotic in the feeds which protect broilers against the entrance and proliferation of "bad" organisms that can cause disease and enhances the immune response of broilers. Hence, the supplementation of multi-enzyme and probiotic has significant effect on mortality of broilers. Although the net return obtained in producing broilers supplemented with multi-enzyme and probiotics (T2) was higher than those fed with pure commercial feeds (T 1), the net return obtained in producing T1 was higher than in producing T2. This means that the use of pure commercial feeds was more profitable than with the supplementation of multi-enzyme and probiotics in broiler production. The most common problems encountered in the production of broilers were the existence of huge rodents and birds in the production area; some of the bulb sockets were loose; poor supply of water; uneven slats spacing; and no proper area for disposal of chicken manures.
