Seven hundred fifty day old unsexed broiler chicks were used in a 35-d trial to examine the effect of supplementing different levels of palm oil on lean meat yield of broilers. The chicks were randomly distributed following a completely randomized design in five treatment groups having three replications per treatment. Each treatment had 150 birds with 50 birds per replicate. Five diets were formulated using locally available ingredients as diet without oil, diet containing 2.0%, 3.0%, 4.0% and 5% palm oil. Results indicated that weight gain of broilers differed significantly (p<0.05) among the treatment groups at 2nd wk. The weight gain of 4% palm oil group was higher (p<0.05) than 5% dietary oil group at 2nd wk. At 5th wk, weight gain of without oil and 5% oil groups were similar (p>0.05). Feed intake significantly (p<0.05) differed at 2nd wk. Broiler that received 5% dietary palm oil group consumed the least amount of feed compared to others. No significant differences were found among the treatments in whole experimental period for feed conversion ratio. The meat yield characteristics did not differ (p>0.05) among the broilers receiving different levels of palm oil in diets except gizzard, wing meat and dark meat. Supplementation of oil resulted in significantly (p<0.05) increased dark meat weight at 3% level. Dressed yield of broilers had an increasing trend at increased level of palm oil supplementation up to 4%. However, at 5% supplementation dressed yield was lowest. Similar results were also observed in breast meat. Thigh meat was progressively increased for supplementation of oil up to 3% level, at higher level it tended to decrease.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/bjas.v43i2.20705 Bang. J. Anim.

“…Among the lower level of supplementation, 5% showed the highest feed intake. This result is consistent with the findings of Nwoche et al (2003), who found that feed intake was highest (p<0.05) at 5% inclusion level of Canarium schwerfurthii oil in rats diet and also observed.…”

“…Results also showed that at the 1st week of age of rats, there was no significant effect of oil supplementation and it might be the adjustment period in the utilization of oil which perhaps has been minimized to show significant (p<0.05) increasing weight gain of the rats in the subsequent weeks. This result coincides with the findings of Nwoche et al (2003) who found that 10% inclusion level of Canarium schwerfurthii oil showed the highest (p<0.05) body weight gain. Hake et al (2005) reported that Canarium schwerfurthii oil has positive effect on weight of rats.…”

40 male wistar rats between 7 in a 28-day trial to examine the effect of supplementing different levels of Canarium schweinfurthii oil on growth rate of male wistar rats. The rats were randomly distributed into groups of ten (10) using a completely randomized design in four treatment groups with one serving as control. Control group was fed using standard growers mash as diet without oil, while the remaining treatment groups were fed diet supplemented with 2.5%, 5 10.0% Canarium schweinfurthii oil. ANOVA was used to analyse the data generated and the results indicated that weight gain of rats differed significantly (p<0.05). Feed intake also differed significantly (p<0.05) among the rats receiving 10% level schweinfurthii oil supplementation. Proximate analysis study revealed high ethyl extracts, protein and calcium levels in this particular level of supplementation. The findings in this present study suggest that dietary Canarium schweinfurthii appropriate levels can offer improved nutritional outcomes.

“…crude palm stearin was applied. Nwoche et al (2003) reported quite relevant results when provided palm oil in broilers diet on different levels. They reported that the addition of 4% palm oil results in better growth performance compared to 2, 3, 5, and 6% supplementation, however in the present study similar kind of change pattern was noted in the results.…”

The main objective of the investigation was to observe the growth performance, carcass yield, meat quality, and intestinal morphology of broiler chicks with respect to the dietary crude palm stearin (CPS). The study was conducted on 200 birds and dividing them into two experimental groups viz control and CPS treated group with 10 replications of 10 birds in each. Chicks under the control group were fed basal diet only, however in CPS treated group chicks were fed the basal diet supplemented with 3% CPS. Birds were reared for 42 days and data regarding different parameters of study was recorded. Data were analyzed by student T-test and differences were considered significant at P < 0.05.Results indicated CPS treated group pertaining to lower final body weight, daily weight gain, feed conversion ratio, feed intake, dressing percentage, fillets, thight+drumsticks, and wings percentages. CPS treated group possessed lower liver, spleen, gizzard, and abdominal fat weights. Breast meat holds lower values for shear force, drip loss in CPS treated group, while cooking loss found vice versa. Abdominal fat breast in the meat and thigh skin possessed higher a* (redness) and b* (yellowness) values in CPS treated chicks, while breast skin and thigh meat hold lower a* and b* values in CPS treated chicks compared to control. Intestinal villus height, villus area and crypts depth in duodenum found considerably higher in the CPS treated chicks. Jejunum in CPS treated group possessed higher crypt depth but villus height and villus area remained lower. In conclusion, CPS impairs overall growth performance, carcass yield and meat quality but supports the intestinal morphology.
