| dc.description | Bangladesh is an agro-based developing country and the growth and sustainability of
agricultural production are prerequisite for attaining the rate of overall growth of the
economy. Livestock is an important sub-sector of agriculture. Poultry is one of the major
components of livestock sub-sectors that committed to supply cheap sources of good
quality nutritious animal protein to the nation. Around 22 core poultry are remaining in
Bangladesh (DLS, 2016). This subsector has created direct, indirect employment
opportunity including support services for about 6 million people. The sector accounts
for 14% of the total value of livestock output and is growing rapidly. It is found that
poultry meat alone contributes 37% of the total meat production in Bangladesh. Poultry
contributes about 22-27% of the total animal protein supply in the country. | en_US |
| dc.description.abstract | The experiment was conducted to evaluate the efficacy of DDGS on production
performance and reduce the feed cost of sonali chicken. A total of 150 one day old
chicks were purchased from Najim Poultry Feed and Hatchery Limited. After 7 days of
brooding the chick were randomly divided into five treatment groups namely (T0, T1, T2,
T3 and T4) having three replication in each treatment group. Brooded chick was randomly
separated into replication wise in separate pen for rearing 9 weeks. Each treatment group
contain 30 birds where as each replication contain 10 birds. Experimental birds in T1, T2,
T3 and T4 were provided DDGS @ 5%, 10%, 15% and 20% while T0 was provided only
normal feed. 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 @5% DDGS
compared to control T0group. This result also indicated that body weight gain, feed
intake and feed efficiency were increased at dose rate using 5% DDGS formulated feed.
Data obtained feed cost, lowest was seen in DDGS treated group T1 and highest in
untreated group. Net profit obtained maximum was found in T1 (35.02±3.42Tk.) then T2
(31.01±1.73Tk.), T0 (23.98±1.71Tk.), T3 (21.98±2.87Tk.) and T4 (19.10±4.88)
respectively. Based on the result of present study it may be concluded that DDGS is a
good source to reduced feed cost and it has significant effect on body weight gain and
feed efficiency of sonali chicken. The result of this study suggests that supplementation
of 5% DDGS can be used for the production of sonali chicken. The results suggest that
better growth performance could be achieved in sonali chicken supplemented with
DDGS formulated feed | en_US |
