However, there are limited studies on the use of firewood ash as a calcium source for broilers at the finisher phase.…”

This study was conducted to determine the growth performance and nutrient digestibility ofbroiler chickens fed wood-ash based diet. A total of 120 broiler chickens were randomlyallocated to four treatments in the completely randomized design. Treatment 1 was thecontrol while Treatments 2, 3, and 4 were Neem ash (NTA), Shea butter ash (SBA) and Locustbean ash (LBA), respectively. Each treatment has three replicates and ten birds per replicate.Data on growth rate, live weight, feed intake and mortality were collected while feedconversion ratio was calculated. Apparent dry matter, crude protein, crude fibre, etherextract and nitrogen free extract retention were also determined. All data collected wereanalyzed using one-way analysis of variance. Starter phase results shows that birds on SBA ash had the highest final weight (366.00 g), body weight gain (173.71 g) and feed intake (546.03 g) and were significantly higher (p<0.05) than the control. At the finisher phase, all ash treatment had higher (p<0.05) final, daily weight gain and better (p<0.05) feed conversion than the control dietary. The digestibility results indicated birds on LBA diet had the highest crude fibre and ash content. The study showed that wood ash influenced growth performance and nutrient retention of broiler chickens. Chickens on ash-based diets performed better that the control at the finisher phase.

<p>O objetivo do trabalho foi avaliar as características dos tibiotarsos de frangos de corte machos aos 21 e 35 dias de idade. Foram determinados os percentuais ósseos de proteínas colagenosas (PC), proteínas não colagenosas (PNC), cinzas e minerais (cálcio, fósforo, potássio e sódio), além dos pesos dos tibiotarsos <em>in natura, </em>secos e desengordurados. Foram utilizados 648 frangos de corte machos da marca comercial Cobb® em um delineamento em blocos ao acaso com seis tratamentos e seis repetições com 18 aves por unidade experimental. Os tratamentos consistiram na suplementação de 0,0; 0,5; 1,0; 1,5; 2,0 e 2,5 ?g de vitamina D3 ativa/kg de ração. Aos 21 e 35 dias de idade as aves foram pesadas e um frango/repetição com o peso médio do lote foi retirado e abatido para se obter os tibiotarsos. A composição orgânica e mineral dos ossos foi afetada pelo fornecimento suplementar de vitamina D3 ativa nas rações. Recomenda-se até 1,50 ?g de 1,25(OH)2D3/kg de ração para frangos de corte machos de 8 a 35 dias de idade.</p>

On the other hand, to the best of our knowledge, no studies on the use of firewood ash as a calcium source for broilers were published.…”

Alternative feedstuff, bone development, calcium source, performance, poultry. ABSTRACTThis experiment aimed to evaluate the utilization of firewood ash as calcium source in the initial diet of broiler chickens. One hundred and twenty eight broiler chickens of Cobb-500® strain, from 1 to 21 days of age, were randomly distributed in four treatments with four repetitions of eight birds each, been four female and four male. The experimental diets were corn-soybean based, been isoenergetic and isonutrients, and had 0, 0.32, 0.98 and 1.27% of firewood ash as calcium source. The firewood ash utilized had 23.8% of calcium, 0.39% of total phosphorus, and 0.11% of sodium. The experimental treatments did not influence the feed intake, body weight, body weight gain, and food conversion from 1 to 7, 1 to 14, and 1 to 21 days of age. The tibia and femur thickness and length at 21 days of age were not altered by treatments. It was concluded that the firewood ash can be used as calcium sourcereplacing limestone in the initial diet of broiler chickens, without change the performance and the bone development.
