Issue Date: | 1-Jan-2012 | Journal: | CEFood 2012 - Proceedings of 6th Central European Congress on Food | Abstract: | A 60 days test on 90 Lohmann Brown layers aged 40 weeks was conducted to evaluate the effect of the dietary Camelina meal on layer performance. The hens was housed in cages (3 layers/cage) and assigned to three groups (C, E1 and E2). Feeding was ad libitum with one meal per day. The control diet (C) had as basal structure: corn (57.47%), soybean meal (15%), corn gluten (4 %) and sunflower meal (9.5%). The experimental diets (E1, E2) were differentiated from C by inclusion of Camelina meal in percentages of 3% (E1) and 6% (E2) respectively. Throughout the experimental period the feed intake, egg production, egg weight and egg quality parameters were recorded on a daily basis. The results show that the feed conversion ratio (g feed/g egg) of group C (1.908±0.10) was significantly (P≤ 0.05) higher than in E1 (1.883±0.10) and E2 (1.817±0.15). However, egg production of E2 (93.68±2.26%) was significantly (P≤ 0.05) lower than in the other 2 groups (97.22±1.76% for C; 97.99±1.99 for E1). The weight of E2 eggs (64.00±2.31 g/egg) was comparable with the weight of C eggs (64.61±2.48). | URI: | https://open.uns.ac.rs/handle/123456789/5677 |
