| dc.description | Poultry plays a vital role in the rural socio-economic system as maximum households are
directly involved in poultry farming. Around 22 core poultry are remaining in Bangladesh
(DLS, 2016). About 44 percent of daily human intake of animal protein comes from
livestock products. The poultry industry has been supplying quality protein to the people
of Bangladesh at the lowest price in the world. Poultry Industry is one of the fastest
growing segments of the agricultural sector today in Bangladesh and has become a means
of improving the economy of the farming community due to its enhanced production
performance. Apart from improving the livelihood, it also provides proteinaceous food.
However less mortality in layer type chicken plays a major role in determining the
economic profitability. | en_US |
| dc.description.abstract | This study was conducted under the Department of Dairy and Poultry Science Hajee
Mohammad Danesh Science and Technology University. Objective of the research was to
evaluate the effect of tulsi leaves (Ocimum sanctum) juice supplementation in drinking
water as a growth promoter in sonali chickens. For this purpose, 120 day old chicks were
purchased from Rafid Hatchery Ltd. After 7 days of brooding the chick were randomly
divided into four treatment groups namely, T0, T1, T2, and T3 having three replications in
each treatment group. Brooded chick was randomly separated into replication wise in
separate pen for rearing 8 weeks. Each treatment group contain 30 birds where as each
replication contain 10 birds. Experimental birds in T1, T2 and T3 were provided tulsi leaves
juice @ 1.5, 3 and 4.5 ml per liter drinking water while T0 was provided without tulsi
leaves juice. The results of this study was indicated that final live weight gain and feed
efficiency of birds was significantly (p<0.05) higher that received @ 3 ml/L tulsi leaves
juice compared to control T0 group. This result also indicated that body weight gain, feed
intake and feed efficiency were increased at dose rate 3 ml/L tulsi leaves juice. Meat yield
parameters there were no significant difference among the treatment group except breast
meat weight and dressing percentage. In bacterial test E. coli and Salmonella load was
decrease significantly in treatment group as compared to the control group. Data obtained
feed cost, lowest was seen in tulsi leaves juice treated group T2 and highest in untreated T0
group. Net profit was found maximum in T2 (26.52±1.20Tk.) then T1 (20.36±1.33Tk.), T3
(17.76±1.11Tk.) and T0 (12.96±1.12Tk.) respectively. Based on the result it could be
concluded that the supplementation of tulsi leaves juice 3 ml/L in drinking water has
potential used as growth promoter for production of sonali chicken. | en_US |
