Performance of Broilers Fed Diets with High and Low Net Energy but Similar Metabolisable Energy
Published:June 22, 2021
Summary
I. INTRODUCTION The most important cost component of broiler feed relates to energy, as this may account for up to 75% of feed costs (van der Klis & Kwakernaak, 2008). Therefore, more accurate evaluation of feed energy in broiler production is imperative for environmental and financial reasons. The metabolisable energy (ME) system is currently the preferred measure for determining energy u...
Nice work. The poor performance in high NE diet with low protein is naturally because of imbalance of calorie and amino acids in feed. Under such situation there is tendency of fat deposition in birds at the cost of feed efficiency resulting in poor performance.
