Résumé

A 56-day trial was carried out to determine the nutritive value of Malted Sorghum Sprouts (MSSP) for starter and finisher phases in broiler chicken. There were 5 dietary treatments, replicated 3 times with 18 birds per pen in a completely randomized design. Five nonisocaloric-isonitrogenous experimental diets were Jormulated to contain MSP at 0%, 5%, 10%, 15% and 20% to compliment other energy components in the diets. Feed intake was significantly (p<0.05) the lowest for birds fed diet 5 while thase on diet 2 had the highest values. Body weight gain significantly (p<0.05) decreased as the percent MSSP increased in diets. Feed conversion and cosi/kg gain significantly (p<0.05) favored birds on diet 2 compared to those on diet 1,3,4 and 5 respectively
