Abstract
Green feed is a natural diet for livestock and poultry, so its residual production to meet current demand is becoming an urgent problem today. The use of natural pasture lands leads to a shortage of green feed, which leads to the need to use various methods of artificial production of greenery. One of these methods can be hydroponic cultivation of green grass as animal feed. The introduction of a hydroponic green feed enriched with vitamins and minerals in the diet can increase the productivity of animals and improve their overall health. The presented material presents the results of complex scientific research on the analysis of the impact of hydroponic greens in different dosages (20, 25, 30, 35% of the total diet weight) on the implementation of the reproductive qualities of geese of the parent herd. The methodological basis of the research was previously conducted by foreign and domestic scientists on the topic under study. The work was performed using common methods: experiment, comparison, analysis, and generalization; special methods: zootechnical, physiological, biological, hematological, morphological, statistical and economic. The results of the studies established the optimal dose of inclusion hydroponic greens in the composition of the diet of geese in the amount of 25-30% by weight of the ration, thereby improving safety of livestock by 2.0%, egg production – by 3.8%, yield of hatching eggs by 4.9%. the content of carotenoids in the yolk of eggs from 1.62 to 3.50 mcg/g, and vitamin A and B2 by 3.19 and 2.32 mcg / g compared to the control, respectively. The level of profitability of production increased by 9.6%.
