dc.description.abstractDue to costly feeds brought about by imported raw materials, poultry raises are exploring available alternative sources of feedstuff, hence this study on the different levels of sunflower seed meal (3%, 6%, and 9%) as feed extender in broiler ration was conducted to determine the performance of broilers from November 8, 2011 to December 20, 2011 at Bacnotan, La Union. Sixty (14-day-old) broiler chicks were used in the study employing the Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) with three blocks. The results of the study revealed that birds fed with different levels of sunflower seed meal showed comparable performance with the birds fed with pure broiler starter mash in terms of final weight, gain in weight, feed conversion ratio and profit above feed, medicine and stock cost of the birds. However, the feed consumption was significantly reduced when the level of sunflower meal was increased from 6% to 9%.
