Project Abstract

Abstract
The poultry industry plays a crucial role in meeting the growing demand for animal protein worldwide. In this context, optimizing the growth performance of broiler chickens is essential to ensure efficient production and profitability. The present study aimed to investigate the effect of different feeding strategies on the growth performance of broiler chickens. The research was conducted over a period of 12 weeks, involving a total of 300 broiler chickens randomly allocated to three dietary treatment groups a control group fed a standard commercial diet, a group fed an experimental high-protein diet, and a group fed an experimental low-protein diet. The growth performance parameters assessed included body weight gain, feed intake, feed conversion ratio, and mortality rate. Results indicated that broiler chickens fed the high-protein diet exhibited significantly higher body weight gain compared to those in the control and low-protein diet groups. Additionally, the feed conversion ratio was more favorable in the high-protein diet group, indicating improved feed efficiency. However, no significant differences were observed in feed intake and mortality rate among the treatment groups. Furthermore, the study explored the economic implications of the different feeding strategies, considering the cost of feed and the potential benefits in terms of growth performance. The findings suggest that while the high-protein diet may lead to better growth outcomes, the increased cost of feed formulation should be carefully weighed against the benefits to optimize profitability. In conclusion, the results of this study highlight the importance of selecting appropriate feeding strategies to enhance the growth performance of broiler chickens. Understanding the impact of dietary composition on key performance indicators can help poultry producers make informed decisions to optimize production efficiency and economic returns. Future research could focus on investigating the long-term effects of different feeding strategies on overall poultry health and welfare.

Project Overview

The research project titled "Effect of Different Feeding Strategies on Growth Performance of Broiler Chickens" aims to investigate and analyze the impact of various feeding strategies on the growth performance of broiler chickens. Broiler chickens are a widely consumed source of meat globally, and their growth performance is a critical factor affecting the efficiency and profitability of poultry production. The project will focus on comparing and evaluating different feeding strategies, such as conventional feed, organic feed, and alternative feed sources, to determine their effects on the growth rate, feed conversion ratio, and overall performance of broiler chickens. By assessing the various feeding strategies, the research aims to provide valuable insights into optimizing the feeding practices for broiler chicken production. The study will begin with a comprehensive introduction providing background information on broiler chicken production, the significance of growth performance in poultry farming, and the importance of efficient feeding strategies. The problem statement will outline the existing challenges and gaps in knowledge regarding the impact of feeding strategies on broiler chicken growth. The objectives of the research include evaluating the growth parameters of broiler chickens under different feeding strategies, comparing the feed conversion efficiency, analyzing the nutritional content of various feed types, and assessing the economic implications of different feeding practices. The limitations and scope of the study will be clearly defined to establish the boundaries and constraints of the research. The significance of the study lies in its potential to contribute to the advancement of poultry farming practices by identifying the most effective feeding strategies for enhancing the growth performance of broiler chickens. The findings of the research will be structured in a systematic manner to facilitate a clear understanding of the results and their implications for poultry farmers and stakeholders in the industry. Overall, the project on the "Effect of Different Feeding Strategies on Growth Performance of Broiler Chickens" aims to address a crucial aspect of poultry production and provide valuable insights that can lead to improvements in feed management practices, ultimately enhancing the efficiency and sustainability of broiler chicken farming.
