| dc.description.abstract | An experiment was conducted on 100 layers (20 weeks old) to discern the effect of feeding black soybean on feed intake, nutrient utilization, egg production and composition, haemato-biochemical constituents and histopathological changes. A twelve week feeding trial was conducted in a completely randomised block design. The experimental birds were randomly divided into five treatment group’s viz. T1: Control; T2: 0.2% raw black soybean; T3: 0.2% germinated black soybean; T4: 0.2% roasted black soybean and T5: 0.2% cow urine treated black soybean. production performance was studied in three different phases viz., Phase I (20-24 weeks), Phase II (25-28 weeks) and Phase III (29-32 weeks). At the end of feeding trial a metabolic trial was conducted to know the nutrient utilization. Highest egg production was recorded in group T5. Highly significant (P≤0.01) difference was observed in feed intake in phase II, III and overall phase as well as in crude protein of egg and serum cholesterol. Significant differences (P≤0.05) were observed among the different treatment groups in egg production in phase III, feed intake in phase I; dry matter, crude protein and ether extract utilization; egg weight, shell thickness; ether extract, ash and cholesterol content of egg and in serum glucose. The least histopathological changes were observed in the group fed cow urine treated and roasted black soybean. From the present study it may be concluded that cow urine treated black soybean up to the level of 0.2% incorporation can be recommended for improving performance in layers. | en_US |
