dc.description.abstractA field bench mark survey was carried out to study the basic problems faced by the farmers on quality feeds, suitability of litter materials and optimum floor space required for broiler production in nearby villages embarrassing 20-25 km radius of Veterinary College, Anand, Gujarat state. The experiment was conducted on 887 straight run day old commercial broiler chicks (Cobb) obtained from M/S Venkey's hatcheries Pvt. Ltd., Anand and the growth trial was conducted in layer house, poultry unit of the Instructional Farm, Department of Livestock Production and Management, College of Veterinary science and Animal Husbandry, Anand Agricultural University, Anand (Gujarat) from 03-09-03 to 08-10-03. The experimental birds were randomly distributed in eight equal floor spaced cells (125 sq.ft/cell). The two litter materials viz Rice husk (L1) and wheat straw + saw dust (L2) in equal weight based proportion were spread uniformly with one inch thickness initially in all eight cells and fed two different rations Ri (BS-I: 24.18 % CP and 2999 Kcal/Kg ME with 124:1 energy: protein ratio and BF-I: 22.22 % CP and 3108 Kcal/Kg ME with 140:1 energy: protein ratio) and R2 (BS-II: 22.12 % CP, 2879 Kcal/Kg ME with 130:1 energy: protein ratio and BF-II: 19.87 % CP and 2941 Kcal/Kg ME with 148:1 energy: protein ratio) in order to form four combinations viz. L1R1, L1R2, L2R1 and L2R2 of litter materials and rations. Broiler starters were given upto 3rd week after that broiler finishers rations were given to birds along with broiler starter in ratio of 25:75, 50:50 and 75:25 for two days consecutively in 4th week and during 5th week birds were fed on solely broiler finishers upto 35th day.en_US
