AN24159Additivity and associative effects of metabolisable energy and ileal amino acid digestibility in broiler diets combining sorghum with different protein sources
Sorghum-fed broilers has reduced performance compared with those fed corn- and wheat-based diets. This difference has been attributed to the presence of anti-nutritional factors in sorghum. The present findings showed that anti-nutritional factors in sorghum and protein meals have an impact on the additivity of digestible nutrients in mixed diets, giving rise to associative effects.
