Effect of Yeast on Cholesterol Content in Broiler Chicken

The high cost of meat and egg in Nigeria has been attributed to livestock production costs which ultimately increase the price of the finished products. The interaction between production costs and meat output culminates in the production of insufficient quantity of meat and egg. This in turn accentuates the shortage of animal protein to the populace. With the widening protein deficiency gap due to high population and high cost of livestock production, there is the need to reduce production cost through feed cost savings. This is to allow the products go round the population at affordable prices. The benefits of feed savings, feed conversion rates, lean meat and a more uniform growth are worth serious consideration. This can be done by finding ways of reducing feed cost. The proposed study was to measure the effect of Yeast on cholesterol content in broiler chicken.
