A study was conducted to determine the growth performance and mortality rate of Khaki Campell, Jinding and Deshi genotypes in two coastal locations of Barisal and Bhola districts of Bangladesh. Sixty-day-old ducks of 3 genotypes were randomly allocated to 3 treatments having 4 replications in each. Ducks are reared up to 150 days and at the end of experiment one male Khaki Campbell of highest live weight was selected from each replicate group. The average weekly body weight gain (g/bird) of the Khaki Campbell and Jinding were significantly (p<0.01) higher than those of the Deshi ducks. The average body weight of Khaki Campbell (1480.25g) was slightly higher than that of Jinding (1428.25g) but significantly (p<0.01) higher than that of Deshi (1140.62g) ducks at the end of the experiment. The mortality rate were significantly different (p<0.01) in various genotypes. The highest mortality was found in Deshi (30.20%) compared to Khaki Campbell (19.79%) and Jinding (17.77%). The profit margin was significantly different (p<0.01) in three genotypes. The ducks reared in Barishal performed better (p<0.01) than that from Bhola. It may be suggested from the present findings that both Khaki Campbell and Jinding ducks are performed better than Deshi in the coastal region of Bangladesh.http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/bjas.v41i1.11971

Two trials were conducted to determine feed color effects on broiler performance. A completely randomized design was used. Trial 1 included four treatments: control (complete broiler starter diet), red, green, and blue; and Trial 2 included four treatments: control, orange, yellow, and purple. Each trial had 4 treatments with 4 replicates (60 birds/treatment) fed to 240 male Cobb 500 broilers during a 21 d grow out. Data were analyzed using the GLM procedure. In Trial 1, there were no treatment effects on average body weight, body weight gain, and feed consumption (p > 0.05). Adjusted feed conversion for control (1.23) was less than red (1.27; p = 0.001) and green (1.26; p = 0.009), with blue (1.25; p = 0.056) tending to be different during the experimental period. In Trial 2, there were no treatment effects on average body weight, feed consumption, and adjusted feed conversion during this study (p > 0.05). Body weight gain between d 1 to 14 for purple (490.78 g/bird) was more than orange (467 g/bird; p = 0.013) and yellow (461 g/bird; p= 0.004), with control (474 g/bird; p = 0.052) tending to be different. Results indicate that these feed colors had some, albeit limited, influence on broiler performance parameters.

Determining the optimum level of lysine in the ration will be a significant effort to avoid poor growth in duck husbandry. The purpose of this study was to determine the optimum dietary lysine requirement for EPMp broiler ducks, raised up to 10 weeks of age. The study was designed in a completely randomized design (CRD) with 4 dietary treatments, and 4 replicates. Each replicate consisted of 10 ducks. The 4 treatments were diets, containing lysine: 0.60% (T1); 0.70% (T2); 0.80% (T3) and 0.90% (T4). Variables measured included: feed consumption, body weight gain, feed conversion ratio (FCR), carcass and carcass cuts percentages. The results showed that the performance of 10 weeks of age EPMp broiler duck was significantly affected by the level of dietary lysine (P&lt;0.05). The average body weight gain and the FCR of the duck were significantly affected (P&lt;0.05) by dietary lysine level, but not for feed consumption and percentage of carcass (P&gt;0.05). The average body weight gain of EPMp duck with T4 treatment (0.90% lysine) was significantly higher than that T1 (0.60% lysine) but did not significantly difference (P&gt;0.05) with T2 and T3. The average FCR of EPMp duck under T3 and T4 were significantly (P&lt;0.05) higher than that of EPMp duck under T1. It was concluded that the optimum dietary lysine to produce maximum body weight gain of EPMp duck raised up to 10 weeks of age was 0.70%, while for minimum FCR were at the level of 0.80% and 0.90%.

Abstract Kampung Unggul Balitbangtan (KUB) chicken is a new improved variety of native chicken produced by the Agency for Agricultural Research and Development. In order to increase the productivity of KUB chickens, high quality feed ingredients are needed, one of the local feeds that has good nutritional content for chicken is Moringa oleifera Leaf Meal (MOLM). Moringa, a type of legume crop, can be used as a good source of protein for chicken growth. This study aims to determine the effect of MOLM on the quality of KUB chicken growth. Forty KUB chickens aged 6 weeks were allocated in this study and divided into 2 treatment groups, namely (i) T0 = without MOLM treatment; (ii) T1 = 5% MOLM treatment. Data were statistically analyzed using independent sample t-2 test or non-paired t test (non paired system) using Microsoft Excel application program. The parameters observed include body weight gain, body weight, feed consumption and feed conversion. The results showed that the addition of 5% MOLM to diet KUB chicken had a significant effect on an average body weight of 1,552.5 g/bird at 18 weeks, body weight gain of 1,000 g/bird, feed consumption of 5,720 g/bird and improve the feed conversion of 5.15. While those without added MOLM have an average body weight of 1,207 g/bird at 18 weeks, body weight gain of 723 g/bird, feed consumption is 5,150 g/bird, and feed conversion of 6.75.  Keywords: Feed; Growth quality; KUB chicken; Moringa oleifera leaf meal;   Abstrak Ayam KUB Balitbangtan merupakan varietas unggul baru ayam kampung hasil produksi Badan Litbang Pertanian.

1. A study of the suitability of rations of predominately sorghum grain for the intensive finishing of steers is reported. Six groups, each of ten steers, 18 months old and of an average body-weight of 544 lb., were fed, according to a set schedule, increasing quantities of grain in the ration until two groups were each consuming rations containing 80, 90 or 100% grain. One of the two groups, fed each grain-to-roughage ratio, received 60 g. urea per head daily. Individual steers were slaughtered when they attained 900 lb. body-weight. A seventh group of ten comparable steers was slaughtered at the commencement of feeding in order to measure changes in body composition due to the nutritional treatments.
