“…However, in the overall result, it shows that the feed consumption of T3 was highest than other treatment. The results obtained in this study were corroborated well with the finding of Alalade, Iyayi, and Alalade (2007), and Kumar et al (2018) who were recorded the feed intake was decreased in 5% level of Azolla spp. but increased on highest level inclusion of A zolla spp.…”

Poultry industry plays an important role to supply sufficient animal meat protein and eggs for human consumption. According to Thomas and Chuah (2012), in 2000, poultry industry produces 78% of chicken's meat from the total of meat production and continuously increased to 83% yearly. The increasing demand in chicken's meat has contributed farmers to fulfil the demand of the consumer. However, the development of the poultry industry especially chicken's sector may retard due to expensive feed cost. In the feed formulation system, the feed cost alone is around 70%-80% of the total production cost. A chicken's diet consists of feedstuffs like corn and soya bean as the major of the protein sources. Hence, nutritionist tends to minimize the feed ingredient cost by using by-products from various sources and unconventional

“…Also Rawat N. et al (2015) [11] observed that dried Azolla when supplemented @ 5% in commercial feed of vencobb broiler chicken improves the cumulative feed intake, resulting in higher gain in body weight and feed conversion efficiency. As well as Mangesh Kumar et al (2018) [6] concluded that Azolla pinnata up to 7.5 per cent level can be incorporated in broiler ration without any adverse effect on performance of broiler chicks to coup with scarcity of nutrients availability and to have profitable to poultry farming.…”

“…Notre étude a révélé aussi que plus l'aliment contient de l'Azolla mieux il est consommé. Ce résultat est contraire à celui de Mangesh et al (2018) en Inde qui ont constaté une diminution de la consommation alimentaire des poulets de chair avec 2,5%, 5% d'inclusion de l'A. pinnata par rapport au témoin (0% d'inclusion de l'A.…”

L’objectif de ce travail est de rechercher une voie alternative d’amélioration de l’alimentation et de la productivité avicole au Burkina Faso. L’étude vise à évaluer les effets de l’incorporation de la farine d’Azolla pinnata dans la ration alimentaire sur les performances de croissance des poulets de chair. Pour ce faire, une expérience a été conduite pendant 56 jours avec 120 poussins de chair âgés de 21 jours afin d’évaluer l’effet de l’incorporation de la farine d’Azolla pinnata comme ingrédient alimentaire dans la ration de poulets de chair. Le soja torréfié utilisé comme témoin a été substitué partiellement par la farine d’A.pinnata à des taux de 0, 3 et 6% correspondant à trois traitements alimentaires R0, R1, R2. A la fin de l’essai, une augmentation du poids des sujets avec les apports croissants d’A. pinnata dans les rations (R1 et R2) a été observée même si elle n’a pas été significative. Les indices de consommation n’étaient pas significativement différents. L’incorporation n’a engendré aucun effet néfaste sur le rendement carcasse des sujets nourris à base de la farine d’Azolla en comparaison aux sujets témoins. La substitution partielle du soja torréfié par la farine d’Azolla aux taux de 3% et 6% a entraîné une diminution des coûts alimentaires par kg de poids vif de poulet.Mots clés : Aviculture traditionnelle améliorée, Azolla pinnata, poussins hybrides, performance de croissance. English Title: Effects of incorporating dried azolla (Azolla pinnata) biomass in chicken rations in improved traditional poultry farmingThe objective of this work is to look for an alternative way to improve poultry feed and productivity in Burkina Faso. The study aims to evaluate the effects of the incorporation of Azolla pinnata meal in the feed ration on the growth performance of broilers. To this end, a 56-day experiment was conducted with 120 21-day-old broiler chicks to evaluate the effect of incorporating Azolla pinnata meal as a feed ingredient in the broiler ration. The roasted soybean used as a control was partially substituted with A. pinnata meal at levels of 0, 3 and 6% corresponding to three feed treatments R0, R1, R2. At the end of the trial, an increase in the weight of the subjects with increasing A. pinnata intakes in the rations (R1 and R2) was observed, although it was not significant. The consumption indices were not significantly different. Incorporation had no adverse effect on carcass yield in subjects fed Azolla meal compared to control subjects. Partial substitution of roasted soybean with Azolla meal at 3% and 6% resulted in lower feed costs per kg live weight of chicken. Keywords: Improved traditional poultry farming, Azolla pinnata, hybrid chicks, growth performance.
