LEUCAENA LEUCOCEPHALA SEEDMEAL IN THE DIETS OF LAYING HENS AND ITS EFFECT ON EGG YOLK PIGMENTATION

open access: yes, 2021
The performance of layers on various dietary levels of Leucaena leucocephala seedmeal (LSM) was investigated. One hundred and fifty Dutch Golden Line pullets in their third month of lay, were randomly allotted to five treatments, in which LSM was ...
