Abstract | The purpose of this study was to ascertain how feeding broiler chickens dried cabbage leaf residues would impact their growth performance and cost-effectiveness in 2022. Using Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD), 180 one-day-old chicks (Cobb-500) were acquired from a commercial hatchery and split into four food regimens, each consisting of three replicates of fifteen birds. T1 represented 100% Commercial Feed (C.F.) + 0% Dried Cabbage Leaf Residues (DCR), T2 represented 95% C.F. + 5% DCR, T3 represented 93% C.F. + 7% DCR, and T4 represented 90% C.F. + 10% DCR. The experimental birds received dietary treatments for 18 days, from 22 to 39 days. Body weight gain was measured every four to five days, and feed intake was tracked every day. The analysis of variance technique (ANOVA) was used to examine the mean of the treatments, and the Least Significant Difference (LSD) was assessed at P<0.05. The greatest weight gains in 39 days, 2299.53 grams, was recorded utilizing 5% DCR, followed by 0% and 7% DCR, according to the results. Likewise, a higher feed conversion ratio of 1.56 was noted for both 0% and 5% DCR. Additionally, feed costs were reported as being lower for the 10% DCR inclusion at Rs. 8300 and Rs. 8815 for the 0% DCR.The results of the experiment showed that the group of chicks fed 7% and 10% DCR experienced a substantial drop in body weight, average daily gain, and total weight gain. The findings showed no discernible change in growth performance or weight increase between 0% and 5% DCR. Increasing the amount of cabbage leaf leftovers reduced costs. It has been determined that in order to minimize costs and provide the best growth performance, DCR may replace up to 5% of commercial broiler feeds. |
