ESGUERRA, JEANNIE VI A.5 Applied Research IV (Agri-Science Curriculum) Don Severino Agricultural College, Indang, Cavite, March, 1993. "ECONOMIC AND
NUTRITIONAL EVALUATION OF UTILIZING NON-CONVENTIONAL FEEDSTUFFS FOR BROILERS." Advisers Prof. Erafio C. Esquerra
This study was conducted at Banaba Cerca, Indang, Cavite from July to September, 1992 to determine the effect of non-conventional feedstuff on the growth performance of broilers, to find out the proper level of supplementation and to know the cost and return analysis of raising broilers utilizing locally available feedstuffs.
Four treatment groups were found to have the level of supplementation: Ti — control (pure commercial mash + corn grits), T2 — 75% commercial mash + 10% gabi -
10% cocoa press residue + ipil-ipil leaf meal, TS -— 60% commercial mash + 15% gabi + 15% cocopress residue + 10% ipil-ipil leaf meal, T4 - 45% commercial mash + 20% gabi + 20% cocopress residue + 15% ipil-ipil leaf meal.
The result revealed that the best level of Supplementation was 25% non-commercial feedstuffs Supplementation + 75% commercial mash. This treatment improved the growth of chicks in terms of weight and gave a highly significant difference among treatment groups in terms of feed consumption. On the other hand, there are no significant differences among treatment groups in terms of feed conversion efficiency and final weight of birds. Finally, the finding revealed that as the level menase 7% of supplementation,consumption slightly decreased. The decrease in the amount of feeds needed by the broilers yielded greater weight of meat. The level of supplementation has no adverse effect on the growth of birds.
