Abstract: The study, "Verification Trial on the Utilization of Different Leaf Meals for Broiler" aimed to compare the feeding value of leaf meal, peanut leaf meal and sweet potato leaf meal and to determine which of these is more economical to use. This was conducted at the DSAC Poultry Project from November to December 1990. Birds were distributed into four treatments. Each treatment was replicated three times with fifteen birds per replication. Gabi leaf meal, peanut leaf meal and sweet potato leaf meal were supplemented at 10 percent, 10 percent and five percent levels, respectively, (Treatments II, III and IV) during the finishing stage of the birds. No significant differences were observed on the average body weight of the birds and average daily gain in weight. Results showed significant differences on feed consumption of birds. No significant difference was observed in feed efficiency. Average mortality rate of 2.22 percent was observed in Treatment III due to infectious Coryza brought about by adverse weather condition. Treatment III with 10 percent peanut leaf meal gave the highest net return.
