Abstract: APAYA, MARIAH IEZA GRACE CRUTO, "EFFECT OF 0.1%, 0.2% and 0.4% EFFECTIVE MICROORGANISMS (EM-1) AS WATER ADDITIVE ON THE PRODUCTION PERFORMANCE, MORTALITY AND MORBIDITY RATE OF BROILER CHICKENS". Undergraduate Thesis. Doctor of Veterinary Medicine, Cavite State University, Indang, Cavite, October 2008. Adviser: Eugene M. Principe, DVM, MS. This study determined the effect of 0.1%, 0.2% and 0.4% Effective Microorganisms (EM-1) as water additive on the production performance, mortality, and morbidity rate of broiler chickens. The study used 80 day-old Cobb strain chicks that were divided into four experimental groups with two replications each. The experimental groups were distributed as follows: Control (without probiotic additive), Ti (1m1 probiotic additive per liter of water), T2 (2m1 probiotic additive per liter of water) and T3 (4m1 probiotic additive per liter of water). Broiler chickens without water additive showed slightly higher body weight (2,555.00g), ADG (55.78) and slightly better FCR (2.13) compared to the treated groups, however the observed difference was not statistically significant likewise, the total feed consumption of the control (4,165.33gms.) and T3 (4,165.33gms.) was significantly higher than T2 (3,984.62) and T3 (4,056.41). Mortality was not observed although mild respiratory signs were seen in the different groups at day 15. Control and T3 both have 60% morbidity rates while T2 and T3 had 50% and 40% respectively. The cost and analysis revealed that broiler chickens raised without water additive is more profitable compared to those given with EM-1 as water additive. In conclusion, the results of the study showed no evident improvement on the performance of broilers under actual backyard conditions.
