    Facts should be consideredwhen computing ration forpoultry:1-Feed must contain all essential nutrients inright amounts & proportion required.

    2-Different standards per age should befollowed.3-Palatability of the ingredients which used.

    4-Unlike ruminants, poultry completelydepend upon the dietary sources for allnutrients (essential AAs., vit.B groups &vit.K).5-Include agro-industrial by-products tominimize cost of the ration,6-Optimum level of ingredient inclusion asmany of ingredients have a deleterious

    Nutrients requirements ofpoultry:1-Energy requirement:Ration for poultry calculated on the basis ofME.Poultry eat to satisfy their energy needs whenfed free choice, thus must control the intakeof all nutrients by including them in a definiteproportion to available energy level..

    High energy cereal grains are the principalenergy sources. Fat may can be added at levels of 3-8 to

    increase dietary energy concentrations.Factors affecting feed intake:1-Energy levels in the ration:

    Overheating or underheating duringprocessing can affect the availability of someamino acids.3- Mineral requirements:The major minerals needed in poultry dietsare Ca, P, Na & Cl.Trace minerals may be added if feeds grownon soil deficient in them.

    A-Calcium & Phosphorus:The recommended ratio P:Ca in diet ofpoultry is 1:1.2 (range 1:1 to 1:1.5)For laying hen 1:4 ( Ca important for bone& shell formation) Ca in diet utilization of Mg, Mn &Zn.Inorganic P have a higher availability thanorganic PAll P from animal origin & 40 from plantorigin (wheat bran & rice bran) is available.

    feather meal & poultry by-product meal.Fish meal have a good balance of AAs, butmust not used in large amount (used at 2-5 )to avoid fishy flavor in eggs & poultry meat.

    2-Protein requirement: Laying hen receiving diet containing 3.1 McalME/kg DM require 16.5 protein. To get maximum economic return fromlaying hen flock, a feed efficiency of 1.6-1.8kg of feed per dozen of eggs produced isneed. A laying ration should contain about 15

    protein based on 2900 Kcal ME/kg of diet.

    Essential AAs for laying hens:Leucine, isoleucine, lysine, methionine,tryptophan and arginine.Methionine is first limiting Aas for eggproduction.Mash for laying hens should contain notless than 3-4 animal protein supplement.Feather are high in sulfur amino acids(required methionine).
