Abstract: A twenty eight days feeding trial was conducted to evaluate the effect of feeding graded levels of cassava peel meal supplemented with enzyme (natuzymeR) on broiler performance. One hundred and sixty day old Sayeed chicks were randomly allocated to four dietary treatment (T1 0 %, T2 25 %, T3 50, T4 75 % respectively) group so that each treatment has a total of forty (40) birds. This was replicated 4 times with ten (10) birds per replicate in a completely randomized design. The starter phase showed no significant (P>0.05) difference final weight gain and feed intake. However the finisher phase showed significant (P
