This experiment was conducted to investigate the effect of phytase supplementation in diets reduced amino acids ( AA ), crude protein CP and phosphorus P ) on growth performance, carcass traits, tibia ash broiler chickens. A total 2,240 unsexed Ross 308 chickens were used 56 floor pens with 40 birds each fed one eight dietary treatments seven replicates until 35 d age. positive control PC diet ...

A feeding trial was conducted to determine the effect of varying dietary levels protein on performance Japanese quail chicks. Six iso-caloric (2953-3078 kcal/kg, ME) diets were formulated contain crude (CP) at 18, 20, 22, 24, 26 and 28% levels, respectively. Each treatment replicated three times with sixty (60) chicks per replicate. total 1080 day-old unsexed used for study distributed using co...

One hundred and eighty (180) unsexed twenty-one day-old growing Japanese quails (Coturnix coturnix japonica) were fed for 28 days with diets in which maize was replaced cassava grit at 0, 25 50% or without β-glucanase supplementation. The birds randomly grouped into six treatments three replicates of ten per replicate. Diet 1 the control while 2 3 had their contents respectively. Diets 4, 5 6 s...

Maize weevil, Sitophilus zeamais Motschulsky (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) is a polyphagous storage pest in many crops of economic and food security importance. Its management currently relies mainly on synthetic chemical pesticides. However, plant botanicals are known to exhibit insecticidal properties which can be used manage the weevil stored dry sweet potatoes. To study effect neem eucalyptus...

Abstract This study was conducted to find out the effect of floor type on growth, some physiological characteristics and welfare standards for broilers. 120 unsexed one-day-old ROSS 308 broiler chicks were used. The included two groups with three replicates (20 birds each replicate). first treatment, raised Rice husks litter, second treatment a wire floor, 15 cm high. Feed water provided freely...

The present study was conducted to investigate the effect of color (white and blue-green) LED lighting on productive, carcass behavior traits Cobb broiler chickens. Total 200 one- day-old unsexed chicks were used, divided into two pens/groups (100 birds each with 25 replicate), at stocking density 8.7 bird/ square meters. First pen used for white second blue- green mix light. results showed tha...

The present investigation aimed at comparing meat qualities of broiler chickens reared on deep litter as affected by skip-a-day feed restriction and strain. A total number two hundred eighty-eight (288) unsexed day-old broilers comprising 96 chicks each Arbor acre, Marshall Hubbard strains raised intensive housing systems were used to evaluate the organoleptic attributes. allotted randomly 12 p...

This study was conducted to investigate the response of broiler chickens diets containing cashewnut testa (CNT). Two hundred and four (204) day-old unsexed Arboracre chicks were randomly allotted dietary treatment consisting three replicates seventeen each. The treatments consists a control other with CNT included at 5, 10, 15% as substitute for wheat offal in diet. Cashewnut had 1.5, 20.0, 54....

In Côte d’Ivoire, the quail breeding is confronted with lack of food specific to species. Thus, in south-east this country, an experimental study was conducted at ISMOREL farm sub-prefecture Adiaké. This study, which aims improve productivity day-to-day farms, focused on grain size feed. From grower (GD) and layer (LD) diets, 5 diets have been manufactured. There are: LD a particle mm, 3 GD mm ...

Abstract The Asian citrus psyllid, Diaphorina citri (Kuwayama) (Hemiptera: Liviidae), is a severe pest of orchards worldwide. Its control based mainly on the use conventional insecticides, and resistance to many those compounds widespread. Phenotypic bioassays detect compare response field-collected population with laboratory-reared that susceptible insecticides. This comparison usually does no...
