Abstract
Zehra Sariçiçek, B. and Serdar, S. 2006. Utilization of canola meal with or without phytase enzyme in broiler diets. J. Appl. Anim. Res., 29: 69–72.
To determine the possibility of using canola meal (CM) in place of soybean meal with or without phytase enzyme, 870 one week-old mixed Ross-308 broiler chicks were equally divided into 10 groups and fed on diet in which canola meal (37% CP) replaced 0, 25, 50, 75 and 100% of CP supplied by soybean meal (44% CP). Highest weight gain and feed intake were observd in 25% CM group with the best feed efficeincy. Hundred percent CM fed birds performed the worst in respect of weight gain, feed intake, feed efficiency and carcass characteristics. Phytase supplementation positively affected weight gain only. It is recommended that CM can replace 25% of soybean meal on equi-protein basis in broiler diets.
