In several studies conducted during the starting and fattening periods of broiler stock, and the starting and growing periods of laying stock, levels as high as 20-percent sugarcane molasses were utilized satisfactorily in practical-type diets by the birds. Variations obtained in the different studies were discussed. Caked litter resulted with population densities of 0.19 m.2 (2 feet2) per bird when a 20-percent molasses diet was used, while semi-caked litter resulted with a level of 15-percent molasses. These results imply that with densities of 0.09 m.2 (1 foot2), equivalent to practical management conditions, a level of 10-percent molasses in diets appears borderline. Further corroboration studies seem to be indicated, to determine and recommend the maximum economical level of molasses in the diet which will not result in a compact litter. Feed cost data and their relation to the efficiency of utilization in these studies were evaluated. Inconsistent experimental data from previous experiments is discussed. A new technique for the homogeneous dispersion of molasses is described.

“…Studies conducted by Rosenberg (1954Rosenberg ( , 1955 and Rosenberg and Palafox (1956) have shown that poultry can tolerate fairly high levels of cane molasses; good growth and egg production are obtained with levels as high as 34.5% in the ration. More recently Soldevila and Rojas-Daporta (1976) reported that cane molasses could be used up to 20% in the diet of laying hens with no adverse effects on performance.…”

The Use of Nonprotein Nitrogen Compounds, Sugar Beet Molasses, and Their Combinations in Growing Chick and Laying Hen Rations

Two experiments were conducted to study the utilization of nonprotein nitrogen sources (urea and diammonium citrate), sugar beet molasses, and their combinations by laying hens and growing chicks. Basal diets containing 12 and 20% protein and all essential amino acids according to NRC recommendation (1977) were formulated for laying hens and growing chicks, respectively. Basal diets were supplemented with 3% protein equivalent from soybean meal, urea, or diammonium citrate (DAC) both with and without 10% molasses. In the laying hen experiment, molasses was used also at 15 and 20% in the diet containing 3% supplemental protein from soybean meal.Egg production was increased significantly when the basal diet was supplemented with soybean protein or urea; however, the response to soybean meal supplementation was significantly greater than to that of urea. Diammonium citrate significantly decreased egg production and it had an adverse effect on feed consumption, egg weight, and nitrogen retention. Molasses failed to increase utilization of urea for egg production, but it reduced the adverse effect of DAC on egg production.In the chick studies a growth response was obtained when the basal diet was supplemented with soybean meal, but no response was obtained from urea or DAC. Molasses did not improve the performance of chicks with or without protein supplementation.Molasses per se can be used effectively as an energy source as it had no adverse effects on performance of laying hens and growing chicks up to the maximum levels which were used in these experiments.
