Abstract | ||
This study was conducted in the field of poultry - College of Agriculture - University of Muthanna to study the effect of adding different parts of the Rosella plant locally grown to ratios on some production performance of broiler. Two hundred and forty broiler chicks(Arbor Acre), 2 weeks old , raised from 2 to 6 weeks of age. The birds were distributed to four treatment groups with three replicates per treatment (60 birds per treatment), The treatment groups as follow: 1 - the first group:- control. 2 - Second group:- Use seeds of Rosella plant locally grown by 0.5% in the diet. 3 - Third treatment: - Use the flower for Rosella plant locally grown by 0.5% in the diet. 4 - the fourth treatment used the green leaves of the plant Rosella locally grown by 0.5% in the diet. The results showed a significant (P ≤ 0.05) increase of live body weight, weight gain, feed conversion, production index, economic figure, dressing percentage and recovery rate were recorded from the broiler supplemented with seed and flower of rosella plant locally grown compared with leaves rosella plant treatment and control. The results indicate that there was no significant differences in the productive performance of broiler which was fed seed and flower treatments, and between leave treatment and control. | ||
