Utilization of maize bran-based diets supplemented with Roxazyme G2 G by broilers

Abstract

One hundred and fifty broilers (Abor AcrePlus Strain) were randomly assigned to 5 dietary treatments of 3 replicates each. Five diets (Diet 1: basal, maize-based, with no Roxazyme G2 G enzyme; Diet 2: 20% maize bran with Roxazyme G2 G; Diet 3: 20% maize bran without Roxazyme G2 G; Diet 4: 40% maize bran with Roxazyme G2 G and Diet 5: 40% maize bran without Roxazyme G2 G) were formulated and offered to the birds. The aim was to compare the performance of the birds on the enzyme-supplemented diets and the unsupplemented diets with those on the maize-based diets. Feed intake and weight gain were significantly (P
