Review: Cassava (Manihot esculenta) use in chicken nutrition
Journal Title: Journal of Research in Ecology - Year 2018, Vol 6, Issue 1
Abstract
The characteristics of cassava root and the issues and considerations included when utilizing it in poultry diets were reviewed. A high starch content and a low level of protein and amino acids are cassava’s principle nutritional qualities. In any case, when cassava root meal is utilized as a part of poultry feeds, different elements ought to be thought about, including cyanogenic content, high concentration of potassium and silica, absence of carotenoids and dustiness. Cassavas typical rate of incorporation in poultry feeds in the European Union is around 25%. The incorporation of cassava root meal in poultry diets rely upon the cost and accessibility of energy and protein sources, synthetic amino acids and pigments
