Overview

The trial demonstrates improved growth performance in broiler chickens fed varying molasses diets, suggesting dietary benefits of sorghum distillers’ wastes.

Key Points

  • Broiler chickens showed improved growth performance when fed diets with up to 30% molasses-flavoured sorghum distillers' wastes.
  • Final body weight increased significantly with higher dietary inclusion of sorghum distillers' wastes, peaking at 30%.
  • The feed conversion ratio remained comparable to control at 20% and 30% inclusion levels, indicating efficiency in feed usage.
  • Higher initial body weight was not recorded, yet total feed intake varied significantly across different diets.
