Abstract
Mengistu, A. and Yami, A. 2000. Response of different dietary energy and protein combinations on growth performance of broiler starters. J. Appl. Anim. Res., 18: 209–214.
A 4x4 factorial experiment in a completely randomized design using four dietary levels of energy (2600, 2700, 2800 and 2900 kcal ME/kg) and four of protein (18, 20, 22 and 24 percent CP) was conducted at the Debre Zeit Agricultural Research Center to study the effect of different energy and protein combinations of starter diets on growth performance of broilers. Increasing the protein level of broiler starter diets favours higher feed intake with a subsequent improvement in growth performance.
