Sažetak
The aim of the study was to evaluate the effects of organic acids (BOLIFOR FA 2000S) added to feed on broiler performances. The experiment was conducted on 60 chickens of Cobb 500 hybrid divided into two groups (experimental and control group). The chickens were fed three feed mixtures (starter, grower and finisher). The experimental group was fed the mixtures containing 6g/kg of BOLIFOR FA 2000S (KK Animal Nutrition A KEMIRA GrowHow COMPANY) in accordance with recommendations of the product producer. At the end of the 42 days fattening period higher average body weight and body weight gain, better feed conversion ratio and higher European Production Index- EPI were observed in broiler chickens fed diets containing 6g/kg of BOLIFOR FA 2000S. The chickens of experimental group had higher weight of carcass and carcass yield, too. However, the results showed no significant effects of diets with addition of BOLIFOR FA 2000S (P>0.05) on performance parameters. The results indicate that the supply of organic acids (0.6 % BOLIFOR FA 2000S) to broiler chickens may have a positive effect on chickens performances.
