Substitucion de concentrado industrial por harina de yuca, en dos niveles, para alimentar pollo en ceba

Abstract

Two levels of CM substitution (25 and 50 percent) for industrial concentrate were studied; 3 treatments (with broiler chicks randomly assigned to blocks) during fattening were compared with a check treatment (100 percent industrial concentrate). Slaughter wt. over 1.5 kg/animal were obtained, with the fattening period lasting from 50 to 62 days for the treatments assessed. The cost/kg feed was 0.25, 0.21, and 0.17 peso for the industrial concentrate, 75 percent industrial concentrate/25 percent CM, and 50 percent industrial concentrate/50 percent CM, resp. Likewise, fattening costs $0.10/animal less in treatment 2. (AS-CIAT)
