Abstract

The purpose of this study was to explore the effects of fermented navel orange pomance on growth performance, slaughter performance, muscle amino acid contents and serum biochemical indexes of Muscovy ducks. Navel orange pomace was fermented with the compound bacteria and its nutritional composition was analyzed. Three hundred and sixty 15-day-old male Muscovy ducks were divided into 4 groups (6 replicates per group, 15 ducks per replicate). Fermentation of navel orange pomace and basic diet are mixed to feed Muscovy ducks. The control group was fed the basic diet; group Ⅰ was fed 90% basic diet+10% fermented navel orange; group Ⅱ was fed 85% basic diet+15% fermented navel orange; group Ⅲ was fed 80% basic diet+20% fermented navel orange. The pre-feeding period was 7 days and the formal test period was 48 days. Results showed as follows: 1) the content of crude protein extremely boosted in fermented navel orange pomace (P<0.01), while the contents of crude fat, crude fiber and crude ash significantly decreased (P<0.05). The nutritional value of fermented navel orange pomace was improved. 2) The average daily gain and feed/gain of group Ⅰ were significantly higher than those of control group, groups Ⅱ and Ⅲ (P<0.05). 3) Compared with the control group, the contents of Asp, Glu, Ser, Arg, Gly, Thr, Pro, Ala, Val, Met, Cys, Ile, Leu, Lys, flavor amino acid and total amino acid in group Ⅰ were clearly elevated (P<0.05). 4) The contents of alanine aminotransferase activity, urea and high density lipoprotein cholesterol contents in group Ⅱ were significantly higher than those in the control group (P<0.05). 5) The contents of nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium and moisture in duck feces of groups Ⅰ, Ⅱ and Ⅲ were significantly lower than those of control group. It can be seen that 10% fermented navel orange pomace can significantly improve the growth performance of Muscovy duck, improving the contents of essential amino acids and fresh amino acids in Muscovy duck muscle, enhancing the metabolism, and reducing the emission of nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium and other pollutants in duck feces, which shows that it is feasible to replace 10% basic diet with fermented navel orange pomace for Muscovy ducks.
