Thesis Abstract

Abstract
The poultry industry plays a crucial role in meeting the increasing demand for high-quality animal protein worldwide. One of the key factors influencing the growth performance and nutrient utilization in poultry is the feeding regime. This study aimed to investigate the effects of different feeding regimes on the growth performance and nutrient utilization in poultry. The research was conducted by implementing various feeding protocols and analyzing their impact on key performance indicators such as body weight gain, feed conversion ratio, and nutrient digestibility. Chapter One of the thesis provides an introduction to the study, highlighting the background, problem statement, objectives, limitations, scope, significance, structure of the thesis, and definition of key terms. Chapter Two presents a comprehensive literature review covering ten key aspects related to poultry feeding regimes, growth performance, and nutrient utilization. This section synthesizes existing research findings and provides a theoretical framework for the study. Chapter Three outlines the research methodology employed in the study, detailing the experimental design, sample size determination, data collection methods, statistical analysis techniques, and ethical considerations. This chapter also includes information on the different feeding regimes tested and the parameters measured to assess growth performance and nutrient utilization in poultry. Chapter Four presents a detailed discussion of the findings obtained from the study. The results are analyzed and interpreted in relation to the research objectives, highlighting the effects of different feeding regimes on growth performance and nutrient utilization in poultry. This section also discusses the implications of the findings for the poultry industry and identifies areas for further research. Chapter Five serves as the conclusion and summary of the project thesis. It provides a recap of the key findings, discusses the implications of the study, and offers recommendations for poultry producers and researchers. The conclusion also highlights the significance of the research in contributing to the understanding of how feeding regimes can impact growth performance and nutrient utilization in poultry. In conclusion, this study sheds light on the importance of selecting appropriate feeding regimes to optimize growth performance and nutrient utilization in poultry production. By understanding the effects of different feeding protocols, poultry producers can make informed decisions to enhance the efficiency and sustainability of their operations. This research contributes to the body of knowledge in animal science and offers valuable insights for improving poultry management practices.
