“…The inclusion of treated corn cobs in the diets of broiler chickens reduced ileal digesta viscosity in 50 % CCZ and 100 % CCZ. This observation agreed with the reports of the previous studies of Smeets et al (2018) and Alade et al (2019). Smeets et al (2018) reported that the utilization of enzyme mixtures in broiler chicken diets significantly decreased the ileal viscosity of the diets.…”

The fibrous nature of ground corn cobs limited their utilization in poultry production. Zymomonas mobilis derivable from fresh palm sap is proposed to ferment corn cobs to improve their nutritive values. An experiment was carried out to evaluate the effect of ground corn cobs inoculated with Zymomonas mobilis (CCZ) on growth response, apparent nutrient digestibility and ileal digesta viscosity of broiler chickens. Five diets containing treated and untreated corn cobs were formulated to replace wheat offal at 0, 50 and 100 % levels on weight for weight basis. A total of three hundred and seventy-five 1-day-old unsexed Marshall broiler chickens were randomly allotted to the five dietary treatments in a Completely Randomized Design (CRD). Results showed that the biodegradation of corn cobs resulted in improved (p < 0.05) nutrient composition, crude protein increased by 63.90 % while the crude fibre decreased by 137.89 % after fermentation with Zymomonas mobilis. The broiler chickens fed 100 % CCZ had the lowest (p < 0.05) values for feed conversion ratio (FCR) at both phases. The 50 % CCZ improved (p < 0.05) crude fibre digestibility (CFD) at the finisher phase. However, 50 % and 100 % CCZ reduced (p < 0.05) the ileal digesta viscosity of the broiler chickens. The birds fed 100 % CCZ had the highest (p < 0.05) values of rate of return on investment, economic efficiency and relative cost-benefit. The study concluded that wheat offal could be replaced with 50 % and 100 % CCZ in the ration of broiler chickens with positive economic returns.

“…Palm wine and its associated products have shown great promises as non-antibiotic performance-enhancement feed additives in poultry production 123,124 . Palm wine-derived Zymomonas mobilis enhanced the feeding value of fibrous agro-industrial by-products as alternative feed resources without any deleterious effect in broilers 125 . On-going work by the authors had observed that a blend of activated charcoal and aged palm wine (ACAPS) increased egg-laying performance, ovarian weight development and decreased weight loss due to egg-laying in treated hens compared to the control.…”

Feed is the most critical factor in animal production and the availability of cheap and high-quality feeds are crucial to sustainable livestock production. With the persistent scarcity and high cost of core feed inputs, the use of additives to increase feed use and economic efficiency through improved animal health and performance has gained popularity over the years. In recent times, non-antibiotic feed supplements, such as prebiotics, probiotics, enzymes, herbal mixtures and clay minerals have been tested as effective feed additives in animal diets. Organic acids and probiotic products are dietary feed additives with growth-promoting abilities similar to antibiotics. However, palm sap, an alcoholic beverage from various palm species has shown promise as a potential source of organic acids and direct-fed microbial products. Thus, this review provides a brief discussion on the microbial and biochemical characteristics of palm wine and its potential benefits to the livestock industry to improve performance, increased digestive efficiency, reduce the proliferation of pathogenic organisms and disease incidence in animal production. From the kinds of literature reviewed, it can be concluded that the metabolic products of palm wine fermentation had bacteriostatic and bactericidal properties to inhibit pathogens while improving the growth performance of animals.

This study looked at how weaned pigs' blood biochemical indicators were affected when doum palm meal (DPM) was used in part lieu of maize. After being weaned at 28 days of age and weighing 7.40 ± 0.09 kg at birth, fifty Landrace × Duroc crossbred pigs were divided into divisions based on their body weights and given five distinct experimental diets. Over the course of a ninety-day fully randomized design experiment. Diets 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 were fed 0 %, 5 %, 10 %, 15 %, and 20 % DPM in place of maize. The NRC (2012) states that the experimental diet satisfied the pigs' needs, and clean water was provided daily and at will. DPM had the following elements: manganese (0.91 mg/100g), zinc (0.72 mg/100g), copper (0.35 mg/100g), iron (5.60 mg/100g), calcium (371.20 mg/100g), potassium (966.31 mg/100g), phosphorus (206.19 mg/100g), magnesium (150.67 mg/100g), and zinc. The values of total serum protein, albumin, globulin, creatinine, alanine phosphatase, aspartate transaminase, sodium, potassium, calcium, phosphorus, and bicarbonate were not affected (P˃0.05) by the treatments, with the exception of the glucose level, which was higher (P˂0.05) in D1 than in the other treatments. It has been shown that DPM can partially replace up to 20% of maize without causing metabolic problems or adversely influencing the health of the animals.
