“…Also, Kanyinji and Sichangwa (2014) observed that there was no significant difference in the performance parameters (feed intake, body weight gain and FCR) of broilers fed finishing diets with processed cotton seed meal as partial replacement for soybean meal. Our results however differ from the report of Wafar (2013), who observed a significant difference in feed intake, body weight gain and FCR of broilers when toasted sorrel seed (Hibiscus sabdariffa) meal as substitute for soybean meal increased to 20% in broilers diets. This variation may be attributed to the differences in the initial live weights, breed of broilers and nutrient content of seed and concentrates used for the study.…”

Background. The demand and cost of feed ingredients for broiler chicken production have increased in many African countries. This has necessitated the search for alternative feed sources. Objective. An experiment was conducted to evaluate the effect of graded levels of Entada africana seed meal (EASM) on growth performance, carcass characteristics and organ weight of broiler chickens. Methodology. A total of 150 day-old broiler chicks were randomly allocated to five experimental diets formulated to contain 0, 5, 10, 15 and 20% EASM and designated as T1, T2, T3, T4 and T5 respectively. There were 30 birds in each treatment which was replicated three (3) times with ten (10) birds per pen in a completely randomized design. Throughout the experimental period, feed and water were provided ad libitum for all treatment groups. Result. Average body weight gain (40.01-44.36 g/d), average feed intake (90.47-94.33 g/d) and FCR (2.09-2.33) were not influenced by dietary treatments at both starter and finisher phases of the study (P>0.05). The carcass parameters and organ weight measured across the treatment groups were similar (P>0.05) except back (14.85-17.80 %) and breast (16.45-19.87 %) weights (P<0.05). Implication. Entada africana seed is a rich source of protein that will serve as alternative feed resource in broiler feeds. Conclusion. Therefore, up to 20 % processed EASM could be included in the diets of broiler chickens without adverse effect on growth performance, carcass characteristics and organ weight of the birds.

“…It is an indication that fermentation influenced the concentration of ANFs and increased the nutrient composition of sorrel seed, but did not influence the complete removal of the ANFs. The finding is in line with the report of Makkar et al (1998), Wafar (2013) and Yakubu et al (2017) when they subjected tropical legume seeds to different processing methods and recorded partial reduction of ANFs in the seeds…”

“…The seed has also been reported to possess anti-oxidative and antihypercholesterolemic properties (Ismail et al, 2008;Mahadevan et al 2009). However, the seed have been reported to contain anti-nutritional factors such as total phenols, tannins and phytic acid, saponins and alkoloids which have limited its utilization by monogastric animals (Diarra et al,2011 andWafar, 2013). Hence, proper processing of the seed to aid its utilization by non -ruminant animals is necessary.…”

A 56-day study was conducted to determine the biochemical composition of fermented sorrel seed meal (FSSM) and its effect on the growth performance, carcass characteristics and internal organ weights of weaner rabbits. Forty (40) weaner rabbits with an average weight of 556.89 ±0.10g were randomly assigned to five treatment groups of 8 rabbits per treatment replicated four times with 2 rabbits per replicate in a completely randomized design (CRD) for eight weeks. Five experimental diets were compounded using FSSM at 0, 10, 20, 30 and 40% inclusion levels. The levels of inclusion were designated as Diets 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 respectively. The results of the growth performance were not significant (P>0.05). The result also showed no significant differences (P>0.05) in carcass characteristics and internal organ weights. It was therefore concluded that fermented sorrel seed meal can be included in weaner rabbit diets up to 40% level. Wafar, R.

“…One of the substitutes is agro-industrial by-products. Kwari et al (2004) discovered that non-conventional feed ingredients, such as agricultural by-products or industrial by-products like sorghum chaff, wheat offal, maize offal, rice milling residue, and brewers dried grain, can be utilized in poultry feeding, thereby reducing the cost of production and poultry products. The competition for conventional feed ingredients between man and livestock has significantly contributed to the high cost of conventional feeds in the local market, accounting for 70 -80% of the cost of monogastric animal production (Makinde and Inuwa (2015).…”

This study aimed to evaluate the effect of incorporating three agro-industrial by-products as partial substitutes for maize on growth performance, carcass characteristics, blood profile, and economic efficiency in local Turkey. The study, which spanned a duration of fifty-six (56) days, was executed in a completely randomized design (CRD). A total of forty-eight (48) day-old local turkey poults were employed, and they were randomly assigned to four (4) dietary treatments of 12 poults per treatment, and replicated 3 times with 4 poults per replicate. The experimental diets, which contained three agro-industrial by-products, namely maize offal (MO), rice milling residue (RMR), and brewers' dried grain (BDG), were formulated with an inclusion level of 30% each of agro in by-products in the diets. At the starter phase, there were significant differences (P<0.05) in the final weight gain, and average daily weight gain (ADWG), with higher values for final weight, average daily weight gain, and lower feed conversion ratio being recorded as 664.83, 14.57, 14.56, and 3.37g/bird respectively, at T3. The final weight, average daily weight gain (ADWG), and feed conversion ratio (FCR) at the grower phase were not significantly different (P>0.05). However, T4 diet (30% BDG) had the highest final weight, but the lowest feed conversion ratio (FCR) of 1.42 was recorded at T1 (30% MO. The live weight, dress weight, carcass weight, dress percentage, breast, thigh, wings, back, neck, drumstick, liver, heart, and gizzard were not significantly different (P>0.05) among treatment groups, except kidney, which was significantly different (p<0.05) among the treatment groups. The haematological parameters measured, including packed cell volume (PCV), red blood cell (RBC), mean corpuscular haemoglobin (MCH), mean corpuscular volume (MCV), and white blood cell (WBC), were all significantly (P<0.05) different. However, haemoglobin (Hb) and mean corpuscular haemoglobin concentrations (MCHC) were not significantly different (P>0.05). The feed cost decreased as 30% level of each of the three agro-industrial by-products replaced maize in this study. Feed cost (N/Kg gain) followed the same trend. The findings revealed that T4 (30% BDG) was more economical for feeding turkey than the control diet (T1) containing 100% of maize and the other treatments. Therefore, it can be concluded that the replacement of maize with up to 30% BDG will offer improved growth performance, pose no health risk to turkeys, and reduce the cost of production.
