Impact of Partially Replacing Corn with Ground Pea (Vigna subterranea) on Broiler Chicken Performance and Profitability
Abstract: Rising feed costs pose a challenge to poultry farming, prompting exploration of affordable alternatives like ground pea (Vigna subterranea) to replace corn. This study assessed the effects of substituting corn with 10% and 20% ground pea in the diets of 45 Arbor Acres broiler chicks, compared to a corn-only control. Over 35 days, we measured live weight, daily gain, feed conversion, and consumption, finding significant improvements (p
