Thesis Abstract

Abstract
The poultry industry plays a significant role in meeting the global demand for animal protein. In broiler chicken production, maximizing growth performance is crucial for economic success. This study aimed to investigate the effects of various dietary supplements on the growth performance of broiler chickens. The research was conducted over a specified period, during which different dietary supplements were incorporated into the feed of broiler chickens, and their growth performance parameters were monitored and analyzed. Chapter One of the thesis provides an introduction to the research topic, highlighting the background of the study, problem statement, objectives, limitations, scope, significance, and the structure of the thesis. The definitions of key terms used throughout the study are also outlined to provide clarity and context. Chapter Two presents a comprehensive literature review that discusses existing research on dietary supplements and their effects on broiler chicken growth performance. Ten key items are covered, including the types of dietary supplements commonly used in poultry production, their mechanisms of action, and previous findings regarding their impact on growth performance. Chapter Three details the research methodology employed in this study. It includes information on the research design, sampling techniques, data collection methods, experimental procedures, statistical analysis, and ethical considerations. This chapter provides insight into how the study was conducted to ensure the validity and reliability of the results. Chapter Four presents a thorough discussion of the findings obtained from the research. The growth performance data collected from the broiler chickens fed with different dietary supplements are analyzed and interpreted in detail. The chapter also explores any trends, patterns, or relationships observed in the data and compares the results with existing literature to draw meaningful conclusions. Chapter Five serves as the conclusion and summary of the project thesis. This section highlights the key findings of the study, discusses their implications for the poultry industry, and offers recommendations for future research. The overall impact of different dietary supplements on the growth performance of broiler chickens is summarized, providing valuable insights for poultry farmers and researchers. In conclusion, this thesis contributes to the existing knowledge on optimizing broiler chicken growth performance through the use of dietary supplements. The findings of this study have the potential to inform practical strategies for enhancing the productivity and profitability of broiler chicken production systems, ultimately benefiting the poultry industry as a whole.
