Evaluation of Rubber Seed Meal in Broiler Diets

An experiment was conducted to study the utility of three levels of rubber seed meal in broiler diets. Two hundred, one-day old commercial broiler chicks were divided randomly in to eight groups of twenty five chicks each to form four treatments of two replicates each. The four dietary treatments co...

Two hundred, one-day old commercial broiler chicks were divided randomly in to eight groups of twenty five chicks each to form four treatments of two replicates each. The four dietary treatments contained 0, 15, 20 and 30 per cent RSM. Weekly body weights and weekly feed consumption were recorded and feed efficiency was calculated. At ten weeks of age, six birds from each treatment were subjected to slaughter studies. The results of the study revealed that incorporation of RSM at levels of 15 per cent and higher in broiler diet adversely affected body weight gains and that higher levels of incorporation resulted in marked depression of growth. The feed efficiency was poor among all the treatment groups. Analysis of slaughter data showed no significant difference among dietary treatments except the giblet yield. Based on the above result it can be reasonably concluded that RSM at levels of 15 per cent and above can not be considered as a poultry feed ingredient in the diets meant for broilers till such time with the deleterious factors are identified and remedial measures evolved.
