Abstract
On the basis of the experiment conducted on layers and broilers during different periods of their growth and production, the following conclusion may ne drawn.
1. Expeller pressed kosum cake (PKC) protein is not a suitable substitute for groundnut cake protein, however, it may be added in layers' diet upto a maximum level of 6.0 % of the mash for a short period during scarcity.
2. Solvent extracted kosum cake (SEKC) protein can replace the groundnut cake protein at 5% of the mash success fully. However, it may be used upto 20% level on isocaloric basis in layers diet for economical egg production for short period during scarcity.
3. Skip-a-day feeding during laying period is not economical, as such, it should not be practiced.
4.Skip-a-day feed with or without SEKC (0, 50 and 70 % replacement of groundnut cake nitrogen) supplementation during growing (13-22 weeks) period is beneficial for subsequent egg production in WLH chicks.
