The effect of dietary supplementation of mucuna leaf meal on the growth performance, blood parameters, and carcass quality of broiler

Three hundred 1-day old broiler chickens were used to assess the effects of Mucuna leaf meal (MLM) dietary supplementation on performance, haemato-biochemical indices, oxidative status and meat chickens. Five experimental supplemented diets formulated: diets: 1 (0% supplement), 2 (1.1 % OXYT), 3 (0.5% MLM), 4 (1.0 MLM) 5 (1.5% MLM). The final weight gain birds fed was higher (p < 0.05) than those control other diets. relative weights lung affected by supplementation. Serum cholesterol concentration reduces with increased MLM levels from 1.0% 1.5%. Superoxide dismutase glutathione peroxidase in a 1.5% diet, compared Meat 1.0%, lower rest In conclusion, 1.5 improves body gain, serum concentration, increases superoxide activities reduced cholesterol.
