FEEDING OF BROILERS WITH RUSTIC SACCHASOJAMAIZE WITHOUT THE USE OF ANINOCULANT

Nine hundred and sixty E-24 chickens of both sexes were used to evalua te a new feed known as Sacchasojamaize. A completely randomized design from 7 to 49 days of age was used in four treatments consisting of 0, 10, 20 and 30% of Sacchasojamaize. There was a high viability ranging from 98 to 99%. In treatments with 0, 10, 20 and 30% of this product, respectively. Intake of conventional feeds was 4144, 4082, 3823 and 3 642 g/bird and live weight was 1774, 1856, 1798 and 1721 g/bird and co nversion of conventional feeds was 2.43, 2.34, 2.24 and 2.20 kg/bird. The cost of one ton of carcass + edible viscera was 1303, 1260, 1233 a nd 1252 US$. Thus, it was demonstrated that for the first time rustic Sacchasojamaize without inoculant can be used for broiler feeding and that up to 20% can be included in their feeds.
