Poultry offal meal

Poultry by-product meal, poultry offal meal

Description:

This meal is a combination of all poultry by-products processed together in the same proportions as they occur in the processing plant. Composition can be quite variable for plant to plant and batch to batch, depending upon what is being included. It is suitable to be used in poultry diets.

Caution:

Proper heat treatment is required to prevent the spread of disease (Salmonella, etc.).

Source:

Offal that is associated with a poultry slaughtering and processing operation. Poultry by-product meal can be quite variable depending upon what is being included in the substrate that is being processed.

Feeding Experiments:

Poultry offal meal nutrient composition was found to be quite variable (D)(CAB 931466370)(Dale, 1993). Poultry by-product meal showed a similar response to soybean meal and other commonly used supplemental protein when fed to broilers (7)(AGRIS 96-058597)(Barbour, 1995). The inclusion of 10 % poultry offal meal was found to optimize gain and feed conversion in broilers (2)(AGRIS 90-132455)(El-Sherbiny, 1988). Poultry offal meal was included in broiler diets up to 4 % without depressing performance (1)(AGRIS 83-951907)(Akademia, 1982). Chicken offal meal replaced 33 % of fish meal in broiler diets without depressing performance or carcass characteristics (E)(CAB 981405481)(Fanimo, 1997). Similar performance was observed in replacement pullets when poultry offal meal was fed up to 8 % of the diet, replacing fish meal (H)(CAB 951413699)(Nazneen, 1995). No effect on carcass characteristics of swine was observed when poultry offal meal was fed up to 15 % of the diet dry matter to swine (B)(CAB N306221)(Lunen, 1990). Poultry offal meal was found to be a suitable source of CP for ruminant animals (F)(CAB 981407271)(El-Sayed, 1997). Feeding 10 % poultry offal meal to calves produced the best results (G)(CAB 971411199)(Al-Saiady, 1997). No response to supplemental methionine or lysine was observed when poultry by-product meal was fed to growing calves (3)(AGRIS 1999-053668) (Klemesrud, 1998). Poultry by-product meal was found to be an adequate dietary supplemental protein source for carp (1)(AGRIS 84-094625)(Trzebiatowski, 1982). Best growth occurred when poultry offal meal provided 75 % of the supplemental protein when combined with fish meal and fed to carp (6)(AGRIS 92-119827)(Hasan, 1991). Up to 100 % (0, 25, 50, 75, 100 %) replacement of fish meal with poultry offal meal showed no variation in growth of carp (C)(CAB 931466050)(Hasan, 1993).
