“…They reflected similar results where broilers were fed oregano and garlic essential oils (Kırkpınar et al 2011). The mortality rate was considerably low in the present study being in the range of 1.25 to 1.88%, comparable to rates experienced in commercially produced broilers where 2 to 7% mortality is common (Idan et al 2020;Yerpes et al 2020).…”

The use of herbs in animal nutrition is one of the important approaches in overcoming the disadvantages of excessive use of artificial chemicals in animal nutrition. The present study was done to evaluate response of broilers feeding on a diet supplemented with the ground leaf of misai (Orthosiphon stamineus). The birds in this, study were 160 one-day-old male broiler chickens, given ad libitum water and feed for up to 20 days. Treatments were given to 21-day-old male broiler chickens. Data was collected and evaluated after slaughtering 42-day- male broiler chickens. It was shown that supplementing broiler diets with O. stamineus powdered leaf at a rate of 8 g/kg resulted in growth performance comparable to tetracycline and Vitamin E supplementation. It was also shown that supplementing the diet with 8 g/kg O. stamineus had a blood enzyme-lowering effect. In broilers receiving tetracycline supplementation, however, significant serum enzyme activity was observed. Results also showed that 8 g/kg of ground O. stamineus leaf in the diet was equivalent to 200 mg/kg Vitamin E supplementation. Therefore, O. stamineus leaf powder can promote organic, safe, and sustainable broiler chicken production, and as diet supplement.

“…Studies by Idan et al (2020) revealed that chickens fed with crumbles exhibited higher body weight, average daily gain (ADG) and average daily feed intake (ADFI) compared to those on a mash diet. Moreover, the feed conversion ratio (FCR) was improved in chickens fed crumbles.…”

The surge in global poultry popularity has led to increased chicken meat consumption. The pandemic-induced rise in imported chicken feed prices has adversely affected the profitability of the chicken meat business. This situation prompted an investigation into the impact of four locally sourced feeding systems on chicken body weight gain, aiming to enhance the profitability of Malaysia’s chicken meat industry. The study, conducted on a Malaysian farm with 200 chickens, analyzed Feeding 1 (Premier Starter Feed (PSF) - Control Feed), Feeding 2 (PSF + SK Gold yellow powder), Feeding 3 (PSF + crude palm kernel oil) and Feeding 4 (PSF + PERFAT Pfi-7 organic acid). Over 14 weeks and 2,800 observations, Engle & Granger’s Vector Autoregression estimation procedure was employed, revealing a positive correlation between chicken age and feeding systems impacting chicken body weight. Feeding 3, incorporating crude palm kernel oil, exhibited the most significant influence on chicken body weight gain, emerging as the optimal and effective choice for improving the chicken meat business. The model’s reliability was affirmed by consistent experimental results, rendering the findings applicable to the commercial market. In conclusion, this research establishes that Feeding 3 is the most efficient, offering valuable insights for commercial applications.

“…The temperature of the conditioning was measured at the outlet of the conditioner. The air temperature during the implementation of the experiment was between 0-5 °C, the feed pellet was collected immediately after they were unloaded from the forming machine, and spread on the ground for cooling using an air stream by a fan for 10 minutes to the pellet of reaching a temperature close to the surrounding temperature according to [18], where the temperature was measured by a digital infrared laser thermometer, then randomly subsamples were selected and tested. These steps were in accordance with the ASAE Standard [19] which specifies the testing of the pellet after cooling.…”

The study aimed to effect of speed and die holes diameter in the machine on feed pellets quality. In this study was measured pellet direct measurement (%), pellet lengths (%), pellet durability (%) and pellet water absorption (%). Three die speeds 280, 300, and 320 rpm, three diameters of die holes in the machine 3, 4, and 5 mm, have been used. The results showed that increasing the pellet die speeds from 280 to 300 then to 320 rpm led to a significant decrease in direct measurement, pellet durability, and pellet water absorption was increased, whereas it did not significantly affect the pellet lengths. Increasing the die holes diameter from 3 to 4 then to 5 mm led to a significant decrease in the pellet direct measurement, pellet lengths, pellet durability, and increased pellet water absorption. Pellet die speeds of 280 rpm and the die holes diameter of 3 mm recorded the highest direct measurement 95.61%, pellet lengths 86.30%, pellet durability 93.45%, and less pellet water absorption 15.74%. The minimum die speed and die holes diameter gave the highest pellet direct measurement, pellet lengths, pellet durability and lowest pellet water absorption with all the considered indicators.
