| dc.description.abstract | The study was conducted to compare the performance of broiler chicken fed on BSFL and fish meal during a period of 6 weeks. A total of 24 broiler day 1 old chicks were used in the experiment. Fish meal was replaced with BSFL at 0%,10%, 20%, 30%, 40%, and 50% for treatment groups A, B, C, D, E and F. There was no statistical difference in crude protein content of fish meal and BSFL feed , there was no statistical difference in feed intake, live weight gain and FCR. (P= 0.09) among treatment groups. | en_US |
