Project Abstract

Abstract
The study aimed to investigate the effects of supplementing local turkey diets with Moringa oleifera and Gongronema latifolium leaf meal on semen quality and egg hatchability. A total of 60 local turkeys were randomly assigned to four dietary treatments T1 (control), T2 (2% Moringa oleifera leaf meal), T3 (2% Gongronema latifolium leaf meal), and T4 (1% Moringa oleifera + 1% Gongronema latifolium leaf meal). The experimental diets were fed for 16 weeks, and semen samples were collected for analysis every four weeks. Semen quality parameters evaluated included volume, sperm concentration, motility, viability, abnormal sperm, and plasma membrane integrity. Egg hatchability was determined by incubating eggs from each treatment group. Results showed that turkeys fed T4 had significantly (p < 0.05) higher semen volume, sperm concentration, motility, viability, and plasma membrane integrity compared to other groups. The T4 group also recorded the lowest percentage of abnormal sperm. Egg hatchability was significantly (p < 0.05) higher in the T4 group compared to other treatments. In conclusion, the inclusion of a combination of 1% Moringa oleifera and 1% Gongronema latifolium leaf meal in local turkey diets positively influenced semen quality and egg hatchability. Further research is recommended to explore the mechanisms behind these effects and to optimize the inclusion levels of these plant materials in turkey diets for improved reproductive performance.
