EFFECT OF LOW PROTEIN DIETS SUPPLEMENTED WITH AMINO ACIDS ON PRODUCTIVE PERFORMANCE, CARCASS YIELD AND INTESTINAL INTEGRITY ON BROILERS

Background. A global approach in the development of diets low in crude protein (CP) supplemented with amino acids is to obtain productive yields similar to standard diets. Objective. To evaluate the reduction of CP in diets with similar amounts of Methionine, Lysine, Threonine, Valine, Arginine, and...

Zusammenfassung:Background. A global approach in the development of diets low in crude protein (CP) supplemented with amino acids is to obtain productive yields similar to standard diets. Objective. To evaluate the reduction of CP in diets with similar amounts of Methionine, Lysine, Threonine, Valine, Arginine, and Tryptophan and to measure its effect on the productive performance, carcass yield and intestinal integrity. Methodology. 882 mixed Ross chickens from 1 to 49 days were used in a 2X3 factorial arrangement; one factor was sex (male and female) and another 3 PC levels (0, 1 and 2% less), each treatment had 6 replicates of 25 chickens each. Results. The results indicated similar (P>0.05) productive and carcass performance with the different protein levels. Females showed a higher percentage of abdominal fat compared to males (P
