Does low-protein diet improve broiler performance under heat stress conditions?

Broiler diet formulation has been based on crude protein requirements for a long time, frequently resulting in diets containing amino acid levels above the real requirements of

The summer diet, which contained more oil and less protein, did not influence performance, diet digestibility, or carcass and part yields of birds submitted to cyclic heat stress

The authors also concluded that methionine (as offered in the diet) influenced the cellular aspects of immune response, suggesting that the proliferation of immune cells might

Treatments consisted of a control diet (C) with typical protein level and low amino acid supplementation; a reduced-protein diet supplemented with synthetic amino acids formulated

C or CoQ 10 in the diet of broiler chickens under cold stress conditions improves their performance parameters (body weight and FCR) and ascites-related traits (low red blood

The objective of the present study was to determine the contents of crude protein (CP), essential amino acids, total fat (TF), linoleic acid and minerals in commercial dry dogfoods

The objective was therefore to evaluate HMB and CLA supplementation in reduced protein diet on grows performance, immune system and hematological index in broiler chickens..

In conclusion, the evaluated natural botanical antioxidants are good modulators of amino acid and fatty acid contents in broiler meat, and the inclusion of a combination of
