Effect of Enzyme Supplemented High Fibre Sunflower Meal on Performance of Broilers.

The article presents a study which aims to determine the effect of enzyme supplemented high fibre sunflower meal on performance of broiler birds. The study used sunflower meals (SFM) supplemented with commercial enzymes Grindazym and from National Institute of Biotechnology and Genetic Engineering (NIBGE) which were fed to 320-day old Hubbard broiler chicks. The study suggested that enzyme supplementation can help improve the digestion of fiber contents of SFM and increases the bioavailabity of metabolized energy. The study concluded that enzyme supplemented SFM is safe to use as bird feed and it does not compromise the performance of the birds and reduces the cost of feed production.
