Undergraduate Thesis

The study aimed to determine the potential of Malunggay leaves concoction as a supplement for broiler chicken production. Malunggay leaves, also known as Moringa Oleifera, have been found to have high nutritional value and possess various medicinal properties. The study was conducted in San Isidro, Montalban Rizal, Philippines, and used a randomized complete block design to minimize the effects of confounding variables. A total of 45 broiler chickens were randomly assigned to three treatment groups, with 15 birds in each group.

The treatments were as follows: Treatment 1 (control group) received 2000 ml pure water. Treatment 2 received 200 ml Malunggay leaves concoction mixed with 1800 ml of water, and Treatment 3 received 400 ml Malunggay leaves concoction mixed with 1600 ml of water. The growth performance parameters measured included feed intake, body weight, and feed conversion ratio and water consumption
