CAMPO GAVIRIA, JOSE MIGUEL; PAZ NARVAEZ, LENIN JAMIT e LOPEZ MOLINA, FREDY JAVIER. UTILIZATION OF CHONTADURO (Bactris gasipaes) ENRICHED WITH Pleurotus ostreatus IN CHICKEN. Rev.Bio.Agro [online]. 2017, vol.15, n.2, pp.84-92. ISSN 1692-3561. https://doi.org/10.18684/BSAA(15)84-92.
In commercial poultry production, 70% of the production costs are related to feeding, this is a limiting factor affecting the profitability. This study aimed to evaluate the inclusion of chontaduro peel (Bactris gasipaes), enriched with the (Pleurotus ostreatus) fungus, in the feeding of broilers; using a completely randomized design, with five treatments and three repetitions per treatment, with inclusion levels of 0,10% and 20% of chontaduro fruit peel, and 10 and 20% of chontaduro fruit peel enriched with the fungus (Pleurotus ostreatus). The productive behavior of the lot was determined by the feed intake, weight gain, feed conversion, skin pigmentation and cost benefit ratio of the portions. In this regard, no statistical differences (p <0,05) between treatments for all production variables evaluated were found, except for pigmentation, which was higher with levels of 20% of inclusion; as well as the positive effect in economic terms where the addition of a 20% of chontaduro peel flour enriched with the fungus is favorable because of the better cost-benefit ratio, without significantly affectingthe productive behavior.
