The effects were studied of using combinations of plant protein sources, GNC, Palm Kernel cake, and cotton and seed cake diets, supplemented with 4 sources of methionine (M) and Lysine (L), synthetic M+L, blood meal + M, fish meal, or chicken offal meal (COM) in 8-Week 3 x 4 factorial experiment with starter cockerels. Sources of M and L did not affect mean daily gain of the birds but significant differences (P<0.05) were observed in feed intake, feed per gain ratio, protein efficiency ratio (PER), nitrogen retention (NR) as well as economy of feed conversion. Maximum weight, best feed conversion ratio, PER and economy of feed conversion were observed in the M+L dietary group followed by those on blood meal + M supplementary group where maximum NR was observed. The least response values (except NR) were obtained in the COM group. This study indicated that starter cockerels (0-8 weeks) fed diets supplemented with synthetic methionine and lysine gave the most optional performance.

Growth of Labeo rohita spawn, fed on four formulated (almost iso-nitrogenous and iso-caloric) diets containing fish meal, soybean meal, mustard oil cake and rice bran along with vitamin and mineral premix was studied at the Bangladesh Agricultural University, Mymensingh, during 07 June to 19 July, 2006. Fish meal was replaced by soybean meal at the rates of 0, 25, 50 and 75% in Treatment 1, 2, 3 and 4, respectively. In a 42-day feeding trial, significantly higher growth rate, feed conversion ratio, protein efficiency ratio and survival rate and slightly higher protein content in carcass were observed in Treatment 2 but the variation was not statistically significant.

Ninety-nine, 28 day-old broilers were used to investigate the effect of raw and roasted Afzelia Africana seed meal (AASM) on performance, apparent nutrient digestibility and nitrogen retention and cost of broiler production under deep litter system of management for 35 days in the finisher phase. The birds were allotted to three treatments with 33 birds. Each treatment was replicated three times (11 birds per replicate). The data collected were feed intake and body weight gain. Protein efficiency ratio (PER), feed conversion ratio (FCR) and apparent nutrient digestibility were also calculated. The results obtained revealed that chicks fed control (A) diet were significantly (P<0.05) higher in weight gain and feed intake than others. Superior (P<0.05) feed conversion ratio (FCR), protein efficiency ratio (PER), daily feed cost and feed cost per kg weight gain were obtained in roasted dehulled AASM(C) diet when compared to the control and raw AASM diets. The apparent nutrient digestibility of dry matter, crude protein, crude fibre, ash, nitrogen free extract and nitrogen retention of roasted diet compared favourably with that of the control diet. The row AASM (B) diet depressed performance and nutrient retention values. The cost per kg diet and cost per live weight gain reduced significantly (P<P.05) in AASM based diets when compared to the control diet. However, the control diet significantly (P<0.05) increased the revenue generated and gross profit when compared to AASM based diets. Based on the results of this study, it is recommended that higher levels of roasted AASM may have some benefits.

Fish is used as a great source of food and the quality of its meat can be indicated by fat and protein contents as well as low quantity of water in fish meat. Therefore, the present study was performed for improvement in weight, feed-conversion ratio, protein-efficiency ratio, and growth. The experiment was performed at commercial level in field (pond) and the influence of fish meal protein on growth of Labeo rohita was investigated in 60 days culture trials. 90 fingerlings (Size: 4.97 to 6.04; Weight: 4.15 to 4.20) were maintained in well aerated 280 L three glass tanks in triplicate. These glass tanks were named as T1, T2 and T3. T1 was consisted of 30% crude protein with control diet containing proteins, fats vitamins and fibres, T2 consisted of 35% protein with control diet, while T3 consisted of only control diet (rice polish). The fish were fed 4% percent of their body weight twice a day at twelve hours interval for 60 days. There was a significant increase (p<0.05) in body weight, feed-conversion ratio, protein-efficiency ratio, and gross fish production of fish having 35% fish meal protein with control diet (T2) when compared with 30% fish meal protein with control diet T1 and control diet T3. These findings suggest that 35% fishmeal protein appear to be sufficient for obtaining optimum growth in fish.

Abstract Waste non-standard fish combined with wheat bran filler in ratio 60:40 were used for production of new non-traditional protein component called Ribotricin. The aim of this study was to elucidate the effects of the new protein component Ribotricin on growth performance, feed utilization and feed ingredients digestibility of carp (Cyprinus carpio L., 1758) fish. The experiment (90 days) involved 160 carp reared in eight concrete tanks with an initial average weight of 0.046 ± 8.04 g in (RT) tank, and fish with an initial average weight of 0.047 ± 6.52 g in (FM) tanks. The experimental carp were equally divided into two groups of 80 (four replicates of 20 carp each). The obtained results at the end of the experiment, showed no significant differences between the groups` Body Weight (BW), Feed Conversion Ratio (FCR), Specific Growth Rate (SGR), Protein Efficiency Ratio (PER) (p> 0.05). Based on the obtained data, we can conclude that Ribotricin (RT) can be used as fish meal substitution in the diets of carp fish without adverse effects on the measured parameters.

Antecedentes: El cultivo de Sacha Inchi (P. volubilis) viene siendo desarrollado en la selva amazónica peruana y en Colombia se cultiva principalmente en el departamento del Putumayo. Hoy en día existen propuestas de su implementación en la región del Catatumbo Norte Santandereano. Objetivo: En este estudio se evaluó el efecto de la inclusión de Torta de Sacha Inchi (TSI) (Plukenetia volubilis), como fuente de proteína en dietas para juveniles de tilapia roja (Oreochromis sp.). Metodología: Fueron preparadas cuatro dietas experimentales en las cuales se incluyó la TSI, como sustituto parcial de la harina de pescado en los siguientes porcentajes 0%, 5%, 10% y 20%. Fueron utilizados 144 juveniles de tilapia con peso inicial de 5,8 ± 0,9 g, los cuales fueron alimentados con ocho raciones diarias durante 55 días para evaluar: ganancia de peso (GP), conversión alimenticia (CA), tasa específica de crecimiento (TEC), tasa de eficiencia proteica (TEP), índice hepatosomático (IHS) y porcentaje de sobrevivencia (%S). Resultados: Los resultados no evidenciaron diferencias significativas (p>0,05) en ninguna de las dietas para CA y %S. Sin embargo, los parámetros: GP, TEC, TEP y IHS presentaron valores significativamente elevados para inclusiones de 0, 5 y 10%, difiriendo estadísticamente (p<0,01) del nivel inclusión de 20%. Conclusión: Se concluye que P. volubilis puede sustituir la harina de pescado hasta en un nivel de 10% de inclusión. Abstract Background:The cultivation of Sacha Inchi (P. volubilis) has been developed in the Peruvian Amazon and in Colombia is grown mainly in the Department of Putumayo. There are proposals nowadays for implementation of this crop in the Catatumbo region (Norte de Santander). Objective: This study assessed the effect of Sacha Inchi cake (SIC) (Plukenetia volubilis) inclusion as a source of protein in diets for juveniles of red tilapia (Oreochromis sp). Methodology: four experimental diets including SIC as a partial substitute of fishmeal were prepared in the following percentages: 0%, 5%, 10% and 20%. 144 juvenile tilapia with initial weight of 5.8 ± 0.9 g were used, being fed with eight daily rations during 55 days to assess: weight gain (WG), feed conversion (FC), specific growth rate (SGR), protein efficiency ratio (PER), hepatosomatic index (HI) and survival rate (%S). Results: The results showed no significant differences (p> 0.05) in any of the diets for FC and %S. However, the parameters: WG, SGR, PER and HI had significantly higher values for inclusions of 0,5 and 10%, being statistically different (p <0.01) from the 20% inclusion level.

The effect of different animal protein sources in broiler production was investigated. 300 seven-day old broilers of equal  average initial weight were randomly allotted into five treatment groups with three replications of 20 birds each and at the end of 28 days, birds were weighed again and re-randomized to the five treatment groups with three replicates of 16 birds each. The diets consisted of four animal proteins. Treatment 1 (Control) had no animal protein while diet 2, 3, 4 and 5 had 4% fish meal, 4% crayfish waste meal, 4% blood meal and 4% meat meal, respectively. The study was conducted for 56 days with 28days starter phase and 28days finisher phase. Parameters evaluated were proximate composition of test ingredients, growth performance of experimental animals, nutrient digestibility and economic analysis. The results showed blood meal had the highest (P<0.05) crude protein level (77.68%) followed by fish meal (54.53%), crayfish waste (48.08%) and meat meal (41.67%). Cray fish waste meal had the highest (P<0.05) crude fibre (6.07%) while blood meal had the least (2.98%). Fish meal had the highest ether extract (5.99%) followed by crayfish waste meal (4.03%), meat meal (3.67%) and blood meal (3.93%). There were nonsignificant (P<0.05) differences in feed intake during both starter and finisher phases across the treatment groups. Blood meal significantly (P<0.05) depressed final live weight, weight gain, feed conversion ratio and protein efficiency ratio while other ingredients showed (P>0.05) similarities in the above parameters apart from in protein efficiency ratio for which meat meal only showed significant (P<0.05) depression. The least cost per kg feed and least cost per kg weight gain (naira) were observed with birds on crayfish diets. There was better (P<0.05) digestibility of crude protein by birds on treatment diets 1 and 2 followed by 3 and 4 while birds than on treatment diet5 had the least value (58.10%). Conclusively, the use of crayfish waste meal in broiler starter diets and combined proteins in broiler fisher diets should be encouraged.

Nursery evaluation of catla spawn was carried out by feeding three iso-nitrogenous diets (35% protein in raw and cooked form) for a period of 30 days. The three test diets (treatments) in raw form were: T1 - groundnut oil cake (GOC) + rice bran (RB) + vitamin-mineral (V-M) premix; T2 - GOC+RB+fish meal (FM) + V-M premix, T3 - GOC+RB+prawn meal (PM)+V-M premix. The diet groups GT1, GT2 and GT3 respectively were same feed combinations in cooked form. Incorporation of prawn meal as animal protein source led to significantly higher final weight, final length, % weight gain, specific growth rate (SGR) and protein efficiency ratio (PER) compared to diet with and without fish meal incorporation. Whereas, diet containing fish meal improved the fry growth and survival rate only when it was cooked. Cooked diet either with fish or prawn meal incorporation led to better fry growth over the respective non-cooked diets, revealing the advantage of cooking process for better nourishment in catla fry during nursery phase.

The performance and nutrient retention of broilers fed raw (RMD), toasted (TMD), boiled (BMD), soaked and boiled (SMD) or no (NMD) Mucuna cochinchinensis seed diets at both starter and finisher phases were assessed using 400 broiler chicks. The birds were fed a common proprietary feed (Top Feed) until 2 weeks of age, followed by a treatment diet for 3 weeks of the starter period, then 5 weeks on the finisher diet. At the starter phase, RMD significantly (P < 0.05) decreased liveweight, daily weight gain, protein efficiency ratio and encouraged poorer feed conversion ratio and higher cost per kilogram weight gain when compared with other diets. TMD decreased (P < 0.05) only the protein efficiency ratio. RMD also decreased (P < 0.05) retention of dry matter (DM), crude protein (CP), crude fibre (CF) and energy while TMD decreased (P < 0.05) retention of only DM, CP, and energy. At the finisher phase, RMD also significantly (P < 0.05) decreased daily weight gain, protein efficiency ratio and feed conversion ratio and increased cost per kg weight gain, while TMD decreased (P < 0.05) only the protein efficiency ratio and feed conversion ratio. RMD again decreased (P < 0.05) retention of DM, CP, CF and energy, while TMD, as in the starter phase, again decreased (P < 0.05) retention of DM, CP and energy. On a cumulative basis, RMD adversely affected (P < 0.05) all the parameters under investigation. TMD affected (P < 0.05) only the feed conversion ratio, protein efficiency ratio and cost per kg weight gain. Boiling Mucuna cochinchinensis, therefore, encourages significantly better performance of chicks, higher nutrient retention and lower cost per kg weight gain than toasting, whereas soaking before boiling does not add any advantage to boiling alone.
