The research project was carried out at Technical University of Cotopaxi in the Salache Academic Experimentation Center (CEASA), 12 mixed sheep (Dorper and Katadin) were used without sex discrimination belonging to said institution with an average age of 6 months and weight of 28.00 kg, the same one that lasted seven weeks, a sample of base diet and chilca (baccharis laifolia) was taken to know its composition through a bromatological examination. The variables evaluated were: Weight gain, food consumption, food conversion, morbidity and mortality. Four treatments with 3 repetitions each were evaluated; the control treatment T0 (base diet), T1 (10% chilca plus base diet), T2 (20% chilca plus base diet), T3 (30% chilca plus base diet) this was administered at 8:00 am and 4:00 p.m. A Completely Random Design (DCA) was used, using the 5% Tukey statistical test, the data was run with the Info Stat program. Weights were made every week. The economic analysis was performed by calculating the Benefit / Cost ratio. The best results obtained in the investigation was the treatment that included 30% chilca (T3), with a greater weight gain (1.17 kg), with respect to food consumption it is concluded that the lowest consumption is 6, 83 kg (T0) and the highest consumption of 7.88 kg (T3) having a better conversion rate of 6.77 kg, concluding that this shrubby plant can be included in the sheep's diet.
