Xylanase supplementation improves the nutritive value of diets containing high levels of sorghum distillers' dried grains with solubles for broiler chickens

BACKGROUND An experiment was conducted to investigate the effect of sorghum distillers' dried grains with solubles (sDDGS) and xylanase supplementation in broiler chicken diets. A total of 432 Cobb‐500 day‐old male broiler chicks were used in a 4 × 2 factorial design (0, 100, 200 or 300 g kg−1...

Zusammenfassung:BACKGROUND An experiment was conducted to investigate the effect of sorghum distillers' dried grains with solubles (sDDGS) and xylanase supplementation in broiler chicken diets. A total of 432 Cobb‐500 day‐old male broiler chicks were used in a 4 × 2 factorial design (0, 100, 200 or 300 g kg−1 sDDGS with or without xylanase supplementation). Each treatment was replicated six times with nine birds per replicate in a 35 day study. RESULTS Feed intake was increased (P
