dc.description.abstractDue to costly feeds brought about by imported raw materials, poultry raisers are exploring available alternative sources of feed stuff; hence, this study on the different levels of desmanthus leaf meal (3%, 6%, and 9%) as feed extender in broiler ration was conducted to determine the performance of broilers from November 24, 2009 to December 28, 2009 at Salincob, Bacnotan, La Union. Sixty 14-day-old broiler chicks were used in the study employing the Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) with three replications. Results of the study revealed that birds fed with different levels of desmanthus leaf 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.
