Carrot meal (Daucus carrota l.) as feed extender for Broilers
(Don Mariano Marcos Memorial State University - North La Union Campus, 2016-03) Dampilag, Donna Beth Y.
Due to high cost of commercial feeds, the study was conducted in order to determine the performance of broilers fed with pure commercial feeds (Broiler starter crumble) against those birds fed with 10%, 20%, and 30% dried ground carrots and 90%, 80%, and 70% commercial feeds, respectively. The study was conducted at Casiaman, Bacnotan, La Union from October 28 to December 3, 2015 in order to find out the performance of broiler fed with (10% - 30%) dried ground carrot in terms of final weight, gain in weight, feed consumption, feed conversion ration and profit above feed, medicine, and stock cost. Based on the result of the study, broilers fed with 10% - 30% dried ground carrot performed comparably with those birds fed with pure commercial feeds (Broiler Starter Crumble) in terms of final weight, gain in weight and profit above feed, medicine and stock cost. However feed consumption and feed conversion ratio was significantly influenced by dried ground carrot.
