Abstract

Feeding trials were conducted to investigate the effect of dietary inclusion of Maize Cob Ash processed Mucuna pruriens seed meals in diets fed to Cyprinus carpio fingerlings. The processed meals were included in treatment diets as quantitative substitute for soya bean meal at 10, 20, 30, 40and 50% replacement levels and designated DII, DIII, D1V, DV and DVI respectively. A diet with 0% Mucuna served as the control (D1). The feeding trial was conducted using 12 plastic bowls (25L capacity) for the period of 56 days in three replicates. There was significant (P<0.05) difference between the treatment means for live weight gain (LWG) and feed conversion ratio (FCR) of the fish fed all the treatment diets. There was no significant difference (P> 0.05) in the feed intake (FI), specific growth rate (SGR%/day), food conversion ratio (FCR), protein productive value (PPV) and apparent protein digestibility coefficient (APDC %) of fish fed D1, MCAD2 and MCAD3 diets. Analysis for cost effectiveness indicated significant differences (P<0.05) in all the treatment diets which also showed that the soya bean based control diet was not as cost effective as the lower levels (10-20%) of incorporation of MCA diet. The 20% MCA processed Mucuna diet was considered the optimum inclusion level to partially replace soya bean meal to produce a cost effective diet for C. carpio without any adverse effect on fish growth.
