Abstract

This paper sought to establish the impacts of balanced amino acid addition on growth rate, meat yield, and profitability in broiler chickens. One thousand two hundred, day old Ross 308 broilers were randomly distributed into four groups with different diets based on amino acid composition for forty-two days. The research findings revealed that;The optimized amino acid supplementation had positive effects on feed conversion ratio (-4.2%; P < 0.001), breast meat yield (+ 3.5%; P< 0.05), and a reduction in feed cost per kilogram gain (-6.7%; P< 0.05). Treatment 3, in which the optimized AA pattern was applied, provided the highest quality of medium and highest growth rates in all observed factors, together with a 25% decrease in the rate of nitrogen excretion. This study confirms that targeted individual amino acid addition has the potential to simultaneously increase productivity and improve the quality of meat as well as make the process economically profitable and environmentally friendly.
