dc.description | Broiler meat is an important source of high quality proteins, minerals and vitamins to
balance the human diet and superior to other meat available for human consumption
for its tenderness, palatability and better digestibility. Specially developed breeds of
chicken meat (broiler) are now available with the ability of quick growth and high feed
conversion efficiency. Depending on the farm size, broiler farming can be an important
source of family income or can provide subsidiary income and gainful employment to
farmers throughout the year. Bangladesh is an agro-based, densely populated
developing country. In GDP, agricultural contribution is close to 19.61% and livestock
sub-sector 3.1% (BBS, 2006). Poultry sector, especially commercial poultry farming has
been developing intensively every part and corner in our country in recent years. The
development of the industry is associated with several areas such as, nutrition,
genetics, management to maximize the efficiency of growth performance and meat
yield. Poultry meat contributes approximately 37% of the total animal protein supplied in our country (Ahmed and Islam, 1990). There is a greater possibility of growth and
expansion of this sector. This is justified by the fact that farmers are becoming more
interested in broiler farming for the last two decades. The success of broiler farming
depends upon optimum growth of broiler. There reorganization of antibiotics in the
1950s as one of the most readily available therapeutic agents and growth stimulants for
farm animals has dictated their continued, widespread and indiscriminate use.
However, there is growing concern in recent years on the use of antibiotics as growth
promoters because of development of resistant bacteria that makes antibiotics therapy
difficult. | en_US |
dc.description.abstract | The feeding trial was carried out by using 120, straight-run 7 day-old Ross broiler
(308)chicks into four groups (3 replicates x 10 chicks), without Growth promoter
(panamin) on Treatment-0, or with Growth Promoter (Panamin). Treatment-1
(1ml), Treatment-2 (2ml) and Treatment-3 (3ml) per litre of water respectively
between 8-28 days of age at one day interval, to evaluate the performance of
broilers in different treatments. The final body weights of birds improved
significantly (P<0.01) in Treatment-3 (3 ml panamin/litre of water) compared to
other treatment groups. Feed consumption and feed conversion ratio’s differed
significantly (P<0.01) at the age of 28th days. Feed conversion ratios were 1.70,
l.68, 1.64 and 1.59 in T0, T1, T2 and T3 respectively. Finally it may be concluded
from the study that addition of growth promoter (panamin) may be beneficial. The
most economic and efficient level of growth promoter was found to be 3.0 ml of
Panamin/litre of water. | en_US |
