Abstract |
The present study was carried out at El- Kanater El-Khyria during the year 2001. Two parts were conducted, the first aimed at evaluating sunflower meal (SFM) and linseed meal (LSM) as plant protein sources in broiler chick diets. In this part, chemical analysis, amino acid determination and protein quality in terms of protein retention efficiency( PRE) were estimated.
The second part was conducted using Arbor Acres broiler chicks to study the effect of incorporating different levels of either SFM or LSM to replace SBM in broiler diets on their growth performance. A total number of 210 one- week old broiler chicks were divided into 7 groups of three replicates of 10 chicks each (7x3x10). They were reared under similar management conditions up to 7 weeks of age and fed on the experimental diets, among which the first (T1) was corn- soy diet and served as a control. In the other diets, either LSM or SFM was used at levels of 5,10, and 15% ( T2, T3 and T4 for LSM and T5, T6 and T7 for SFM, respectively). All diets were adjusted to be iso- caloric and isonitrogenous.
Results of the 1st part showed that LSM and SFM contain 32.5 and 33.2% crude protein, respectively. Amino acid determination showed that the first, the second and the third limiting amino acid in LSM were isoleucine and methionine respectively, while in SFM were lysine, isoleucine and methionine. The protein quality of SFM, in terms of PRE, was better than that of LSM.
Results of the 2nd part showed that SFM at 10% recorded the best parameters of growth performance compared with all other treatments. The LSM could be safely used in broiler diets only at 5% level. Economically, using SFM at 10% recorded higher E.EF values while, 10% LSM was inferior compared with the other treatments.
