Valoración de los parámetros productivos y características organolépticas de 3 insumos agrícolas aplicados en la alimentación de pollos broilers Cobb 500

The objective of this research was to assess the productive parameters and organoleptic characteristics of Cobb 500 broiler chickens fed with three agricultural inputs. Data were collected for six weeks, which were used to obtain results such as: weight gain in grams, feed consumption in grams, feed conversion and benefit-cost ratio. A Completely Randomized Design (CRD) with a three-factor arrangement was used, with a number of 256 Cobb 500 chickens which are the interactions in the research, T1 Chamomile infusion (0 ml, 10 ml, 20 ml and 30 ml), T2 Jamaica infusion (0 ml, 10 ml, 20 ml and 30 ml) and T3 cocoa shell flour (0%, 10%, 15% and 20%). The statistical analysis was performed with the InfoStat computer system and the Tukey test at 5%. The results obtained were: total weight gain in grams shows that the best interaction was obtained by 30 ml of chamomile infusion, 20 ml of Jamaica infusion and 10% cocoa shell flour with values of 3257gr. the lowest value was 30ml of chamomile infusion, 0ml of Jamaica infusion and 0% cocoa shell flour with values of 2558. In the variable food consumption the best interaction was 20ml of chamomile infusion, 30ml of Jamaica infusion and 15% cocoa shell flour with values of 5315.85g of consumption and the lowest values were the interaction 20ml of chamomile infusion, 30ml of Jamaica infusion and 20% cocoa shell flour with values of 4408.60g of consumption. In the feed conversion variable, the best factor was 30 ml of chamomile infusion, 20 ml of hibiscus infusion, and 0% cocoa shell flour, with a feed conversion of 2.29, and the lowest value was 0 ml of chamomile infusion, 30 ml of hibiscus infusion, and 10% cocoa shell flour, with a feed conversion value of 1.54. Regarding the organoleptic characteristics, the judges agreed that all samples had a characteristic flavor (1), while in texture, half of the samples had uncharacteristic textures (2). Regarding odor, 64% (41 samples) had a characteristic odor and 36% (23) had an uncharacteristic odor, and all samples had a characteristic color. The benefit-cost ratios were as follows: T1: 1.09%, T2: 1.16%, T3: 1.16%
