Evaluación de Diferentes Niveles de Tierra de la Diatomesa Aolicada en el Agua de Bebida, en la Producción de Pollos Broiler en la Provincia de Santo Domingo de los Tsachilas

Abstract

In the Santo Domingo Canton of the Santo Domingo de los Tsachilas Canton the productive behavior of broilers under the effect of two dosages of diatom earth added to the drinking water (1.5 and 3.0 g / lt water), was evaluated to be compared to the control treatment which consisted of the application of the conventional sanitary system, using 240 broilers divided into two replications (120 birds per replication; The experimental unit Completely at Random Design. The experimental results were subjected to the consisted of 10 chicks, distributed under a variance and mean separation analyzes with the Tukey test. If was determined that with the use of the 3.0 g / It water dosage, the obtained responses were superior and that highly significant differences were presented upon comparing them to the control treatment, as the birds presented final weights of 2716.05 g, weights gains of 2673.84 g, an alimentary conversion of 1.60, the cost / Kg weight gain was 074 USD, carcass weights and yields o f 2019.04 and 74.33% in their order. The economic profitability was 27% differing from the conventional sanitary system application which was only 3%; this is why it is recommended to use the diatom earth at 3.0 g / lt drinking water dosage in the broiler raising
