dc.description.abstractThe increasing cost of feeds for animal production triggers the continuous effort of researchers to evaluate available plants as feedstuff. This study was conducted to determine the best level of pigeonpea leaf meal (3%, 6% and 9%) as substitute to commercial broiler starter mash and to determine the profit above feed, medicine, and stock cost of birds. This was conducted from October 22, 2010 to November 26, 2010 at Don Mariano Marcos Memorial State University, North La Union Campus, Bacnotan, La Union. Sixty, 14 day-old chicks were randomly distributed employing the Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) in three blocks. The result of the study revealed that broilers fed with ration supplemented with 3% to 9% pigeonpea leaf meal had a comparable final weight, feed conversion ratio, gain in weight and profit above feed medicine and stock cost with the birds fed with commercial broiler starter mash. On the other hand, pigeonpea leaf meal significantly increased the feed consumption of the birds.
