Millet and corn oil in sorghum-based diets for broilers

Abstract

This study evaluated the effects of millet and corn oil additions to sorghum-based diets on the performance, carcass yields and prime cuts (i.e., wings, breasts, thighs and drumsticks) and the relative weights of edible offal (i.e., gizzard, heart, and liver)

Effect of Substitution Millet Energy Instead of Yellow Corn Energy on Growth and Production Diet in Partridge

“…There was no significant difference between control and millet substitution treatments for weight gain (33.75, 35.65, 35.94 and 34.69) g respectively, these results were agreed with [13], in broiler at 14 and 21 days old and [15], in laying hens. There was a significant increase (P <0.05) of FC /bird/week for substitution treatment 30% on control treatment and a numerical increase on the other two millet substitution treatments, control, and substitution treatments means (66.80, 74.63, 80.27 and 74.41) g / bird/week respectively, These results were not agreed with [13], in broiler at ages 14 and 21 days and [10,15], in laying hens. There was no significant effect of millet substitution treatments 20%, 30%, and 40% in FCR, these results were agreed with [13], in broiler chicks at ages 14 and 21 days.…”

“…1. The effect of substation millet energy instead of yellow corn energy in the starter period 1-4 weeks Table (2) shows a significant improvement (P <0.05) in body weight for millet substitution treatments 20% and 30% (112.89 and 115.56) g on control treatment (102.97) g, the treatment 40% (108.73) g increased numerically to control, these results were inconsistent with [13], in broiler at ages 14 and 42 days, whereas [9], agreed at four weeks of age in the partridge. There was no significant difference between control and millet substitution treatments for weight gain (33.75, 35.65, 35.94 and 34.69) g respectively, these results were agreed with [13], in broiler at 14 and 21 days old and [15], in laying hens.…”

“…The millet Pennistum glaucum is often called (nutritional grain) because of its rich nutritional content compared to other types of grains such as wheat, rice, or corn, for example. Using millet in dietary patterns to significantly improve human and animal health, millet is one of the first plants grown in Africa, sub-Saharan Africa, and Asia, it is considered by farmers as a basic and traditional crop, it is one of the species that resist and endures many crop diseases and pests and can survive under Inappropriate weather conditions [10][11][12], Millet contains 3000 -3640 kcal/kg energy and 7.7 -12.5% raw protein, millet cereal is nutritionally similar to corn and can be feed substitutes [13].…”
