Triticale in diets for broilers

A study was carried out to determine the best replacement level of corn by triticale in diets for broilers. A total of 1,560 one-day old birds, both male and female, were used in the study from 1 to 42 days of age. The experimental design was in random blocks with five treatments: 0, 25, 50, 75% of replacement of corn by triticale, and a fifth diet containing basically triticale and soybean meal. There were 12 replicates per treatment, six with males and six with females. All diets were isocaloric and isoproteic. There was an effect of sex (P < 0.05) for all studied variables, except feed conversion during the first phase of the experiment. Males showed better performance than females. The interaction between sex and treatment was not significant (P > 0.05). According to the results, it is possible to replace up to 75% of corn by triticale, without negatively affect the performance of broilers. The use of triticale will be economically possible for broiler of both sexes, when its cost represents 63, 46 and 45% of price of corn, for substitution levels of 25, 50 and 75%, respectively. Although showing worst performance, total substitution of corn by triticale is advantajous if triticale price is up till 42% corn price.

Foi realizado um estudo com o objetivo de verificar os efeitos da substituição do milho pelo triticale em dietas para frangos de corte. Foram utilizados 1.560 pintos de corte sendo metade de cada sexo, os quais foram criados de 1 até 42 dias de idade. O delineamento experimental foi em blocos casualizados, com cinco tratamentos (T1=0, T2=25, T3=50, T4=75% de substituição do milho por triticale e T5= uma dieta à base de triticale e farelo de soja). Utilizaram-se seis repetições de cada sexo de 26 aves em cada tratamento. As dietas foram isocalóricas e isoprotéicas. Foi verificado efeito de sexo (P < 0,05), exceto na conversão alimentar média na primeira fase. Os machos apresentaram melhor desempenho do que as fêmeas. A interação entre sexo e tratamento não foi significativa (P >0,05). De acordo com os resultados médios de desempenho, verificou-se que é possível substituir o milho por triticale em até 75%, sem afetar o desempenho. O uso do triticale será econômico, em dietas para machos e fêmeas juntos, quando o seu custo representar 63, 46 e 45% do preço do milho, nas substituições de 25, 50 e 75%, respectivamente. No tocante ao T5, mesmo com desempenho inferior em relação ao T1, é economicamente viável se o preço do triticale representar 42% do preço do milho.
