Improvement in growth performance of broiler chicken on dietary supplementation of mushroom powder (Agaricus bisporus) and probiotics (Saccharomyces cerevisiae)
Abstract:A study was conducted to evaluate the effect of mushroom (Agaricus bisporus) and probiotics (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) on broiler performance. Day-old broiler chicks (n=360) of strain (Cobb 400) were divided randomly into eight groups. Each represented a treatment (45 birds/ treatment) with triplicate in a completely randomized design. The experimental diets were designed as, T1: control, T2: 0.4% mushroom powder, T3: 0.8% mushroom powder, T4: 1.2% mushroom powder, T5: 0.1% probiotics, T6: 0.2% probiotics, T7:… Show more
