Effect Of Different Processing Methods And Inclusion Levels Of African Bread Fruits (Treculia Africana) Seeds On The Performance Of Starting Turkey
ABSTRACT
This study was conducted to evaluate the effect of different
processing methods and inclusion levels on African Breadfruit seeds on the
performance of starter turkeys. The experiment was carried out at the Poultry
Unit of the Teaching and Research farm of Michael Okpara University of
Agriculture, Umudike. One hundred and thirty five (135) day old turkey were
used for this study and the birds were randomly assigned to nine (9) treatments
in three replicates. Fifteen birds were assigned to each treatments, which
consists of 5 birds per replicate in a 3x3 factorial design. Data were
collected on growth performance, carcass characteristics, internal organ
proportions, carcass nutrient composition, hematology, biochemical and
economics of production parameters. All data collected were analyzed
statistically using the Univariate statistic of SPSS Software Package. The
result showed that toasting method and ABSM inclusion at 10 and 20% improved
final weight, weight gain and feed intake. Boiling reduced performance. The I
Q% Toasted ABSM recorded the highest
