Broiler chickens are a type of commercial poultry breed that is intensively raised with the primary purpose of meat production. One of the indicators of successful broiler rearing is the increase in the percentage of carcass yield, which is closely related to the growth performance of broilers during the rearing period. A factor that can influence the increase in carcass yield is the addition o…
Broiler chickens are a type of chicken that is often specifically raised by breeders to produce meat in a relatively short period. To accelerate growth and increase meat production, acidifiers can be administered in combination with probiotics. Citric acid is able to maintain the pH of the digestive tract and stimulate enzyme activity. This study aimed to determine the effect of using acidifier…
The demand for animal protein, particularly from broiler chicken meat, continues to increase, requiring efforts to optimize broiler productivity. One of the efforts commonly applied is the addition of antibiotic growth promoters (AGP) to feed. However, the use of AGP has been increasingly abandoned due to concerns regarding residue accumulation and the potential for antimicrobial resistance. As…
