Abstract

An experiment was conducted to study the influence of enzyme supplementation on the performance of broilers fed diets containing different levels of Ajar Seed Meal (ASM) replacing maize. Neither the ASM incorporation levels nor the enzyme supplementation have found significant (P<0.05) influence on the mean total body weight gain, feed consumption and feed efficiency of the birds. The cost of feeding per Kg live weight gain was found to be lowest in the group where maize was replaced at 5% level of ASM with enzyme supplementation.
