dc.description.abstract | Abstract: The present research work entitled as “Effect of supplementation of aloe vera (Aloe barbadensis) and neem (Azadirachta indica) leaves powder on performance of vanraja poultry birds” was conducted at poultry unit of PGI, VAS, MAFSU, Akola and Department of Animal Husbandry and Dairy Science, Dr. P.D.K.V., Akola.The objective of present study was to investigate the the effect of supplementation of Aloe vera (Aloe barbadensis) and Neem (Azadirachta indica) leaves powder on performance of vanraja poultry birds. For present study 270 day old vanraja chicks were divided in nine treatments having three replications, with ten birds.The treatments were (T1) control with no supplementation, (T2) standard ration plus 1 per cent AVP, (T3) standard ration plus 2 per cent AVP, (T4) standard ration plus 1 per cent NLP, (T5) standard ration plus 1.5 per cent NLP, (T6) standard ration plus 1 per cent AVP and 1 per cent NLP, (T7) standard ration plus 1 per cent AVP and 1.5 per cent NLP, (T8) standard ration plus 2 per cent AVP and 1 per cent NLP and (T9) standard ration plus 2 per cent AVP plus 1.5 per cent NLP. On the basis of data obtained on feed consumption of Vanraja poultry birds, the average weekly cumulative feed consumption were in the range (2473.33 gm/bird) to (2728.55 g/bird) the highest cumulative feed consumption was recorded in T7 (2728.55 g/bird). The cumulative body weight gain was found highest in (1274.36 g/bird). The total average water intake per bird was highest in (1410.02 ml/bird) in T1. Feed conversion ratio was superior in treatment (T6) (2.04 g/bird). On the basis of data obtained on haemato-biochemical parameters it was observed that the highest values for haemoglobin packed cell volume (PCV), Red blood cell (RBC), White blood cells (WBC) was found in T6 (11.70 mg/dl), T6 (37.72 per cent), T6 (2.93 106/mm3), (36418.06 cells/mm3), respectively. Similarly highest count for serum total protein, albumin, globulin, cholesterol, serum HDL cholesterol, serum LDL cholesterol, triglycerides, uric acid, creatinine, glucose was noticed in T6 (2.80 mg/dl), T3 (1.52 mg/dl), T1 (1.69 mg/dl), T1 (121.57 mg/dl), T7 (33.41 mg/dl), T6 (56.27 mg/dl), T1 (101.17 mg/dl). T1 (5.73 mg/dl), T1 (0.89 mg/dl) and T6 (234.97 mg/dl) respectively. The highest carcass weight obtained in treatment T6 (945.17g). the data obtained on meat composition revealed that highest dry matter content were obtained in treatment T4 (27.67 per cent), in breast meat and highest dry matter content in thigh meat was found in T2 (26.31 per cent). The highest crude protein of breast, thigh and drumstick meat was recorded T4 (19.78 per cent), T7 (24. 94 per cent), T2 (32.09 per cent). The highest crude fat content of breast, thigh and drumstick meat was found in T1 (1.99 per cent), T6 (4.53 per cent) and T1 (3.54 per cent). The highest ash percentage of breast, thigh and drumstick meat were observed in T4 (6.60 per cent), T6 (5.22 per cent) and T5 (8.75 per cent). Similarly the highest crude fiber per cent of breast, thigh and drumstick meat were noticed in T2 (0.72 per cent), T6 (1.12 per cent) and T1 (0.83 per cent) respectively. Data on sensory evaluation of meat revealed that the highest score for appearance, flavour, juiciness, tenderness and overall acceptance recorded in T5 (7.77), T6 (8.33), T6 (8.80), T6 (8.15) and T4 (8.33) respectively. Out of total 270 birds mortality recorded highest in T1 i.e. (3 birds). The highest net profit gain was noticed in T6 (Rs. 71.34). | |
