Abstract

This experiment was conducted to investigate the effects of barley-broken rice-soybean meal low protein diet supplemented with amino acids on the growth performance, slaughter performance, serum biochemical and immune indices of Magang geese during 36 to 70 days of age, in order to explore the suitable low protein level in non-corn diet. Three hundred 36-day-old Magang geese with similar body weight were randomly divided into 5 groups with 6 replicates per group and 10 geese per replicate (half male and half female). The dietary protein levels for 5 groups were 16.50% (control group), 15.40%, 14.30%, 13.20% and 12.10%, respectively, and the levels of lysine, methionine+cysteine, threonine, tryptophan and valine of diets for 5 groups were the same by supplementing amino acids. The experiment lasted for 35 days. The results showed as follows:1) low protein diets supplemented with amino acids had no significant effects on the average final weight, average daily gain and average daily feed intake of Magang geese during 36 to 70 days of age (P>0.05), but the feed/gain of 12.10% and 13.20% groups was significantly lower than that of 16.50% and 15.40% groups (P<0.05). 2) Low crude protein diets supplemented with amino acids had no significant effects on the dressing percentage, eviscerated percentage, semi-eviscerated percentage and breast muscle percentage of Magang geese at 70 days of age (P>0.05), but the abdominal fat percentage of 12.10% group was significantly higher than that of 15.40%, 14.30% and 13.20% groups(P<0.05). 3) Low crude protein diets supplemented with amino acids had no significant effects on the contents of serum total protein (TP), albumin (ALB), globulin (GLB), glucose (GLU) and high density lipoproteins-cholesterol (HDL-C) of Magang geese at 70 days of age (P>0.05); the content of serum uric acid (UA) of 12.10% group was significantly lower than that of 16.50% group (P<0.05), and the content of serum urea nitrogen (UN) of 12.10% group was significantly lower than that of 16.50%, 15.40% and 14.30% groups (P<0.05), while the serum low density lipoproteins-cholesterol (LDL-C) content of 14.30% group was significantly higher than that of 16.50%, 15.40% and 12.10% groups (P<0.05). 4) The content of serum immunoglobulin M (IgM) of 16.50% group was significantly higher than that of 14.30%, 13.20% and 12.10% groups (P<0.05), and the content of serum immunoglobulin G (IgG) of 16.50% group was significantly higher than that of 13.20% and 12.10% groups (P<0.05). In conclusion, under the premise of supplementing optimal amounts of amino acids, the decrease of protein level of barley-broken rice-soybean meal diet has no harmful effect on the growth performance of Magang geese during 36 to 70 days of age, but can significantly improve the feed conversion efficiency and nitrogen utilization efficiency, but decrease the contents of serum immunoglobulins related humoral immunity. Taking the growth performance of Magang geese as the main evaluation index, the level of protein in the barley-broken rice-soybean meal diet supplementing optimal amounts of amino acids can be reduced to 12.10%.
