Thesis Abstract

Abstract
The poultry industry plays a crucial role in meeting the increasing demand for animal protein worldwide. Among poultry species, broiler chickens are the most commonly raised for meat production. The growth performance of broiler chickens is influenced by various factors, with nutrition being a key determinant. This study aimed to investigate the effects of different feeding strategies on the growth performance of broiler chickens. The research was conducted over a period of X weeks, with a total of Y broiler chickens divided into Z treatment groups receiving different feeding strategies. The feeding strategies included variations in feed composition, feeding frequency, and feeding duration. Growth performance parameters such as body weight gain, feed conversion ratio, and mortality rate were measured and compared among the different treatment groups. The results revealed significant differences in growth performance among the broiler chickens subjected to different feeding strategies. Broilers fed a high-protein diet showed superior growth performance compared to those on a standard diet. Additionally, broilers fed multiple times a day exhibited better feed efficiency and growth rates compared to those fed less frequently. The duration of feeding also played a role, with broilers provided with continuous access to feed showing improved growth performance. Moreover, the study identified limitations in certain feeding strategies, such as increased feed wastage and potential health issues associated with specific diets. Despite these limitations, the findings underscored the importance of tailored feeding strategies in optimizing the growth performance of broiler chickens. In conclusion, this research provides valuable insights into the effects of different feeding strategies on the growth performance of broiler chickens. The results highlight the significance of nutrition management in enhancing the productivity and profitability of broiler production systems. The findings of this study contribute to the existing knowledge in animal science and offer practical implications for poultry producers seeking to optimize the growth performance of broiler chickens through strategic feeding approaches.

Thesis Overview

The project titled "Effects of Different Feeding Strategies on Growth Performance of Broiler Chickens" aims to investigate the impact of various feeding strategies on the growth performance of broiler chickens. Broiler chickens are a significant source of meat production worldwide, and optimizing their growth performance is essential for ensuring efficient production and meeting consumer demand. The research will explore how different feeding strategies, such as varying nutrient composition, feed additives, feeding schedules, and feeding methods, can influence the growth rate, feed efficiency, and overall performance of broiler chickens. By comparing the effects of these feeding strategies, the study seeks to identify the most effective approach to maximizing growth performance while maintaining the health and welfare of the birds. Key aspects of the research will include conducting feeding trials with different groups of broiler chickens, monitoring their growth parameters, feed intake, and feed conversion ratios, and analyzing the results to determine the impact of each feeding strategy on growth performance. Additionally, the study will assess the economic implications of implementing different feeding strategies in terms of feed costs, production efficiency, and profitability. Overall, this research overview highlights the importance of optimizing feeding strategies for broiler chickens to enhance growth performance, improve production efficiency, and ensure sustainable poultry farming practices. The findings of this study are expected to provide valuable insights for poultry farmers, nutritionists, and researchers in the animal science field, contributing to the advancement of knowledge and best practices in broiler chicken production."
