Effect of Dietary Inclusion of Solvent Extracted and Detoxified Karanj (Pongamia Glabra Vent) Cake on Feed Intake, Serum Biochemical Parameters and Economics

Abstract

Shortage of conventional feed ingredients makes it imperative to search for alternate feed resources for reducing the cost of chicken feed. A study was conducted to observe the effect of dietary incorporation of alkali (2% NaOH, w/w) processed solvent extracted karanj cake (SKC) supplemented with or without protease and liver tonic. Two hundred and sixteen commercial layer chickens (Lohmann) at the age of 41 weeks were procured, leg banded, weighed individually and distributed in a completely randomized design (CRD) into 9 treatments, which were further replicated in 6 and fed on diet containing soybean meal, and those of test groups were fed diets containing SKC and NaOH treated SKC partially replacing soybean meal. The FCR (Feed intake/dozen eggs) was signed (P<0.05) higher in the raw SKC and NaOH treated SKC supplemented with liver tonic. This solvent extracted karanj cake could be incorporated after alkali (2% NaOH, w/w) processing at an enhanced level of 10%, replacing soybean meal nitrogen, in the commercial layers without deleterious effects in comparison to control on the feed intake, FCR (Feed intake/dozen eggs), serum biochemical parameters and economics.
