GIRAUD, Nicolle  and  RODRIGUEZ, María Alejandra. Broiler feed proposal with vinasse. Rev. Fac. Nac. Agron. Medellín [online]. 2024, vol.77, n.3, pp.10899-10905.  Epub Sep 30, 2024. ISSN 0304-2847.  https://doi.org/10.15446/rfnam.v77n3.111204.

Considering previous studies on the potential use of vinasse in the agricultural sector, this study seeks to design a feed for broilers in three presentations according to the stages of the animal’s feeding program (start 1-14, growth 15-30 and end 31-42 days) that includes vinasse in the formulation. To this end, soybeans were considered as a source of protein, a diet with metabolizable energy between 12,351.06 and 14,025.78 kJ∙kg-1. The granulometry was determined according to the broiler management manuals, and the feed manufacturing process was specified in a block diagram and a flow diagram; in the same way, a test protocol for the use of the feed formulated in a sample of broilers of the Cobb breed. This research suggests that using vinasse in feed formulations for broilers could provide significant benefits to the agricultural sector.
