Abstract
A feeding trial was done to determine the production performance of broiler chicken fed with reduced metabolizable energy and digestible amino acids corn-soybean-based diet supplemented with multi-enzymes. Two-hundred forty day-old chicks were assigned to three treatments (i.e. basal diet, reduced metabolizable energy and amino acids as negative control, and negative control with multi-enzymes) using Completely Randomized Design. Treatments were replicated eight times. Data were subjected to Analysis of Variance and Least Significant Difference. Results showed that supplementing multi-enzymes at 0.05% inclusion rate to the reformulated ration had negative effects on the overall production performance of broilers (P<0.05). Moreover, the group with multi-enzymes exhibited 46% reduction in income over feed and chick cost. Based on these findings, the study does not recommend the use of this commercial multi-enzyme at 0.05% inclusion rate in formulating diet for broilers similar to the nutrient composition of the negative control.
