Effect of pelleting and enzyme supplementation in maize-soyabean based diet on relative economics of broilers production

An experiment (42 days) was conducted on broiler chicks to study the effect of pelleting and enzyme supplementation in maize-soybean based diet on relative economics of broilers production. Day old broiler chicks (n=160) were randomly distributed into four treatments having two replicates each. Control T, (Maize-soybean based mash diet) was as per BIS (1992) whereas T-2- T--(1)+ multienzyme, T-3-Maize-soybean based pelleted diet and T-4-T-3 + multienzyme. The starter and finisher rations were formulated. Total cost of feed as well as return out put increased due to pelleting and or enzyme supplementation. But net profit was lowered due to pelleting and or enzyme supplementation. So it was concluded that pelleting and or enzyme supplementation improved the gross return out put but not net profit.
