Abstract
Recently, the composition of compound feeds used in poultry farming has changed significantly. But no matter how the set of ingredients in compound feeds is transformed, they should serve as sources of protein and energy. In recent years, original varieties of grain fodder crops have been obtained, which are characterized by increased energy and protein nutrition, such as hullless forms of barley, characterized by a reduced content of indigestible fiber, and therefore, have increased nutritional value for poultry. Therefore, the introduction of naked barley into the composition of feed for quails is of particular relevance. The article presents the results of a study on the use of the effect of compound feed with the introduction of 15 and 20% naked barley on the productivity of laying quails. When feeding quails with experimental mixed fodder, the average daily consumption of mixed fodder decreased by 1.75 and 2.53%, the intensity of egg production per average laying hen increased by 12.88 and 4.74%, and the cost of production of quail eggs decreased by 10.44 and 4.04%.
