STATISTICAL COMPARISON OF THE SUPPLEMENTATION WITH FRUIT FLOUR BREAD TREE AND WITH BANANA FLOUR IN THE WEIGHT GAIN IN HYBRID TURKEYS IN THE CANCHÁN PRODUCTION CENTER, PERU

Abstract

This paper aims to compare the effect of ration supplementation with breadfruit (Artocarpus altilis) flour and plantain (Musa
paradisiaca) flour at different concentrations on weight gain in Hybrid turkeys at the farm production of Canchán, Peru during 2021. An experimental study was carried out consisting of a total of 100 Hybrid turkeys; to which breadfruit flour and banana flour were supplied, in: 10% and 20% to the turkey ration. The experimental units were randomly distributed into 5 groups where it can be observed that the greatest weight gain was in group 1 with the addition of 10% breadfruit flour. Using the analysis of variance (ANOVA), statistically significant differences were found between these study groups (p ≤ 0.005). It was possible to conclude that breadfruit meal has a greater effect than plantain meal on weight gain in Hybrid turkeys at the Canchán production center.
