Productive Response to Manganese Added to the Diet of Broilers Ross (308) Exposed to Feed Restriction
Journal Title: International Journal of Life Science and Agriculture Research - Year 2024, Vol 3, Issue 05
Abstract
Manganese sulfate was applied as a feed additive in the diet to show its effect on the productive characteristics of broilers. One hundred eighty broiler chicks were used, divided into four treatments. For each treatment, 45 chicks were divided into three replicates, each replicating 15 chicks. The treatments were 0+ (Free diets), 0+ Feed restriction eight h/day, 75, 100, and 125 mg/ kg feed+ feed restriction eight h/day for treatments T1, T2, T3, T4, and T5, respectively, and were subjected to feed restriction (8 hours/day) for 8-14 days of the experiment. The experiment continued for 35 days. The results of the experiment were: Significant superiority (P≤0.05) in live body weight at the end of the experiment and the total average weekly weight gain for treatments T3 and T4 compared to the rest of the treatments, and the treatment also increased significantly (P≤0.05) T1 in the rate of feed consumed, and the treatments T2 and T3 improved significantly (P≤0.05) in the feed conversion factor, and no significant differences were found in the percentage of chicks’ mortality.
