Table 7.
Broiler’s growth performance on starter, grower, finisher, and overall experimental period among the four dietary treatments (Control; CON, ground grape pomace; GGP, dried wine lees; WYC, and extract from grape stems included in soluble starch; PE).
| Dietary Treatment | ||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| CON | GGP | WYC | PE | SEM | Effect | |
| Initial BW (g/broiler) | 44.08 | 44.08 | 44.79 | 44.50 | 0.54 | NS |
| Overall experimental period | ||||||
| Final BW (g/broiler) | 2975.8 | 2981.9 | 3004.9 | 3103.7 | 61.81 | NS |
| FI (g/broiler) | 4204.1 | 4195.5 | 4199.3 | 4414.7 | 77.43 | NS |
| FCR | 1.43 | 1.43 | 1.42 | 1.44 | 0.02 | NS |
| Mortality % (broilers) | 0 (0/60) | 3.3 (2/60) | 5.0 (3/60) | 1.7 (1/60) | - | NS |
Final BW: final body weight; FI: feed intake; FCR: feed conversion ratio (g feed/g gain); SEM: pooled standard error of means.
