Melaza de caña de azúcar y su efecto pigmentante y productivo en pollo de engorde COBB 500

The objective of this work was to evaluate 1 and 2% sugar cane molasses in drinking water and its pigmenting and productive effect in COBB 500 broiler chickens. This research was developed under a completely randomized experimental design (DCA), with 3 treatments T0: Control treatment; T1: 2% and T2: sugar cane molasses, with 6 repetitions per treatment. The data were analyzed by analysis of variance, using the 5% Tukey test with the InfoStat statistical package. In the evaluation of the variables, significant differences were found (p<0.05) in leg pigmentation, while no statistical differences were found in the beak and breast (p>0.05). On the other hand, regarding the productive variables, T1 obtained the highest final weight (3.36 Kg) and weight gain (3.31 Kg), presenting no significant differences between treatments (p>0.05). The feed consumption (6.11 kg) and feed conversion (1.94 kg) showed that the best treatment is T1, showing that there are no significant differences (p>0.05) in the feed conversion variable, while, in the feed consumption food there are significant differences (p<0.05). Regarding the cost-benefit relationship, it was found that T2 is the treatment that presents the best profitability (1.25). It is concluded that the addition of 2% molasses in drinking water presents greater breast pigmentation.
