Abstract

With a view to determine the most suitable combination of soybean extraction and sesame cake in the diet of broilers, 180 commercial broiler chicks of 2 weeks age were grouped equally into control group T1 and various replacements of soybean extraction with sesame meal (T2 to T6). The feeding was conducted till the age of 6 weeks and performance of chicks was studied. The experimental findings suggested that viewed both on the basis of cost and chick performance the combination having 23.5% sesame meal and 28.2% soybean extraction was the most suitable.
