Extract

One of the major problems of poultry production is high cost of feeds. The supplementation of broiler diets with fats and oils is the most practical method for increasing the energy density, stimulating growth and utilisation of energy, improving the consistency and palatability of mash (Peebles et al. 1999). The type of fat inclusion in broiler diets has been shown to influence on carcass fat quality, because dietary fatty acid are incorporated with little change into body fat (Sklan and Ayal, 1989, Scaife et al 1994). Inclusion of fat in the diet may be influenced by the interaction between different added fats sources in the basal diets. This study was conducted to evaluate the effect of various sources of dietary supplemented fat on performance and abdominal fat of two-broiler strain.
