Abstract
Background: Cassava pulp (CSP) is a low-protein, high-fibre by-product of the starch industry. There is a potential for this ingredient in poultry diets if the nutritive value can be improved. Objective: To assess the energy utilisation of broiler chicks on diets containing CSP, when supplemented with microbial enzymes. ... Conclusion: Cassava pulp generally reduced the dietary AME, NEp and HP but did not adversely affect the efficiency of energy utilisation. Microbial enzyme supplementation improved these variables, some of them significantly.
