Využití laskavce (Amaranthus L.) ve výživě monogastrických zvářat

Original language description

The purpose of the present study was to determine balance and digestibility of diets containing raw or popped amaranth grain in broiler chickens, to test the possibility to replace animal protein with amaranth in the diets for pigs and to detect its potential effect on the performance, health status and feed conversion. The following characteristics were established in raw and popped amaranth grain: crude protein (158.1 and 168.5 g/kg), ether extract (71.5 and 69.4 g/kg), neutral detergent fibre (NDF) (99.2 and 111.8 g/kg), cellulose (86.6 and 60.0 g/kg), and essential amino acids (Cys 4.2 and 4.1, Thr 6.0 and 6.5, Ala 8.8 and 9.2, Val 6.8 and 7.4, Ile 5.2 and 5.6, Lys 9.2 and 8.8, Arg 12.8 and 14.2 g/kg). In vitro protein digestibility was 68.1 and 50.6% in raw and popped amaranth grain, respectively. In balance trials with male broiler chickens ROSS 308, the following coefficients of apparent digestibility (%) were determined for control and experimental diets containing 0, 10%
