ABSTRACT
Using seventy five (75) cobb broiler chicken, the study was conducted to determine the effect of half-cooked rice and corn with natural pro-biotic on the growth performance of broiler chicken. It was laid out using the Completely Randomized Design (CRD) with the following treatments: T1- Control (Commercial Feeds), T2 - half-cooked rice, T3 – half-cooked corn. The drinking water was mixed with 10 ml. natural pro-biotic per L of water.
Result of the study showed that the initial weight of chickens obtained not significant difference among treatment means the weight during the first, second, third and fourth weeks revealed a highly significant difference among treatments. T1 obtained the highest weight.
Likewise, the weight gain of chicken on the first, second and third week revealed significant among the treatments. Also, the daily gain in weight and total gain in weight reported highly significant.
In terms of feed conversion ratio and feed conversion efficiency, chicken fed with commercial feeds outweighed the other treatments. A highly significant difference among treatments.
The recipe taste of the meat of chicken tinola and adobo T3 and T2 were the best respectively. There was highly significant difference among treatments.
Return of investments showed that Control (commercial feeds) had higher returns than T2 and T3 had a lost.
It is concluded that commercial feeds has a better effect on the growth performance of cob broiler chickens in terms of gain in weight, feed conversion ratio and efficiency and return on investment.
Further, it is concluded that tinola and adobo recipe taste of chicken meat were better for chickens fed with half-cooked rice and corn.
Chapter I
INTRODUCTION
Background of the Study
The growing trend is eating healthy foods. This means organically or naturally farmed
agricultural products, both plants and animals. Farming, now a days is back to basic but technological.
The use of native materials can restore and enhance the fertility and vitality of the farm. The
presence of a fundamental philosophy of sustainability and biodiversity will allow organic agriculture to
transcend current trends to define it simply as a system of farming that restricts the use of certain
synthetically prepared nutrients to livestock and poultry.
Natural farming is a sustainable farming. It makes all input from natural materials, observes the
law of nature and respects the right crops and livestock.
At this time, agriculture promotes natural farming due to high cost of commercial feeds and feed
supplements and veterinary medicines.
Poultry production in the country contributes a great deal to the income of the Filipinos. In fact, it
has become the most popular enterprise among professionals of different vocations as well as local
farmers.
Enter the broiler industry to satisfy the burgeoning population’s growing appetite for fried
chicken, something whetted by fast food chains. Filipinos gradually came to consume chicken as if supply
were about to run. But the older generation still hankers for bind that makes for the real tinola and adobo
thus, the sporadic come back of native chicken.
Growers use to pasture and free-ranged colored chicken but the problems with importing parents
stocks from bird flu-infected countries caused instability in production. The prices of white chicks are far
lower than those of colored chicken. They are easy to find in poultry supply stores in the locality.
Chickens are chickens. Surely, if they were raised naturally from being hatched, then they will
learn to live that way.
Corn and rice are natural feeds for poultry in particular chickens. These crops contain
carbohydrates, protein, lipids, water and minerals needed on the growth and development of broiler meat
type chicken to find solution on high cost of colored chicken and commercial feeds, using white chicken
locally available natural feeds.
At the same time, the researcher in his advocacy for sustainable organic agriculture and this is the
answer for providing affordable, lean chickens on our tables.
Supplying an adequate quantity of water is very important to bird health and production
performance. Monitoring of water consumption, as it also relates to feed intake, can be useful tool for
evaluating a poultry flock’s status. It is in this premise that the researcher thought of introducing a natural
probiotic fermented fruits and vegetables- malunggay, tomato, radish, banana peeling, melon. Further, the
researcher thought of mixing natural pro-biotic in the drinking water of broiler chicken fed with half-
cooked rice and corn.
Significance of the Study
The result of the study will be significant to patch up the high cost of colored organic chicks,
commercial feeds, feed supplements and veterinary medicines. Also, significant as it goes with the trend
of farming as “back to basic but technologically” through organic farming that it would be a contributory
factor in the healthy lifestyle of Filipinos in consuming organically produced foods.
The result of the study will be beneficial to backyard and small-scale broiler growers to enhance
their capacity on the utilization of natural available and less cost materials in the locality. Today, dressed
organic chicken almost everywhere are becoming popular among consumers throughout the country
because of the nutritional meat value and high degree of safety. It is expressed that the cost of production
will be lessened and the income of growers will be increased.
Free-ranged and pastured chicken are already the trends in broiler and egg production. This was
conducted to support the government campaign on Organic Farming Law of 2012 and to test and verify
the reported merging ideas of a natural farmer and a veterinarian on the use of half-cook rice and corn,
fermented fruits and vegetables with wine and molasses that strengthening the immune system of plants
and animals. Both feed rations and solution added to the drinking water is effective on the growth and
meat development of white chicken.
Objective of the Study
Generally, this study determined the effect of half-cooked rice and corn with natural pro-biotic on
the growth performance of broiler chicken (cobb type).
Specifically, it aimed to find out the effects in terms of:
1. weekly weight increment
2. total gain weight
3. feed conversion ratio
4. feed conversion efficiency
5. average daily gain in weight
6. taste
7. return on investment
Scope and Delimitation
This study was conducted at Namuac, Sanchez Mira, Cagayan on March 30- May 15, 2012. This
was delimited on the growth performance of organic white chicken for 45 days.
It was delimited on the discussion of results on the researcher’s observation during the conduct of
the study.

REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE
Organic farming is getting more buzzes today that before. In today’s agribusiness and
entrepreneurship model, many are eager to make profitable business operation by using natural and local
available materials for their plants and animals as well.
Entrebank.com reported that organic chicken is very good strain of chicken raised as free-ranged
and pastured. It is added that natural feeds will also be provided to maintain its organic characteristics.
Department of Science and Technology (2001), reported that “linage” (boiled) rice contains
moisture, energy, protein, fat, carbohydrates, fiber, ash, calcium, phosphorous, iron, thiamine, riboflavin,
and niacin which are essential on the growth and development of human and also to lower class of
animals.
It is reported that “binatog” (homing) contains moisture, energy, protein, fat, carbohydrates, fiber,
ash, calcium, phosphorous, iron, riboflavin, niacin and ascorbic acid. It is added that mais dilaw (golden
corn) contains the same with added beta-carotene.
Biotechnology (2003), analyses that the two kinds of molecules found in common starches of
rice, potatoes, corn, and beans are amylase and amelopectin. That digestive system can easily convert
them to glucose which provides energy for the cell.
National Institute of Health USA, (2007) reported that coconut and corn oil compose the fatty
acids, capric, lauric, mynistic, palmitic, palmito oleic, linoleic which are essential to the growth and
development of animals. It is also reported that macro minerals phosphorous, magnesium and sulfur are
present from grains and cereal products useful in bones, teeth, cell membranes, direct all growth, enzyme
co-function nerve signal transmission and muscle contraction. The micro minerals, iron, manganese and
chromium are present in unrefined flour of rice, corn and other grains essential for glucose metabolism
which are useful in forming insulin enzymes, central nervous system, responsible in blood and muscle
formation and oxidative enzymes.
From Agni Magazine (2009), it is reported that the crops and livestock weaved by natural
farming are very healthy. It is also mentioned that natural farming products have high quality, good taste
and better yield. Natural farming products have much nutritive contents; protein, a minor acids crude fat
and other essential nutrient were identified to be as much as 300 per century higher than the ordinary
products.
Houng, H. et. al. (2006) conducted a unique study to compare the apparent ideal digestibility of
sorghum to corn using broilers, layers and matured leghorn rooster. Crude protein digestibility of
sorghum vs. corn in all 3 classes of bird was similar between the grain sources. However, the amino acids
still defer in digestibility.
Maiye Organic Farmers and Gardeners Association MOFGA (2012) stated that in the United
States, corn is the main grain used in poultry feeds, it is highly digestible and good source of dietary
energy.
National Organic Program NOP (2012) reported that an organic livestock operation must adhere
to the national standards, for organic chicken farmers, these agricultural feed must be 100 percent (%)
organic.
Draker, P. (2008) stated that with the same nutrients and energy, yellow corn and white corn
makes a great alternative to white corn for organic chicken, not in organic chicken only but also in breeds
of chickens like native and other breed. It is rarely used in egg laying operations as it does not produce the
darker yellow yolk of the egg.
The known FFJ (banana, papaya and squash) have certain proteins to the growth and
development of animals, rich in vitamin C. the banana are packed with potassium, papaya and squash are
packed with color indicates are rich in beta carotene which are important crystalline, HC pigments which
are essential on the growth of animals. These fruits, when fermented boost the flowering and fruiting
veggies (Van Hause 2007).
Moringa Trust (2005) chicken for O will not voluntarily consume moringa leaves. Half the
protein content can be extracted from the leaves in the form of concentrated which can be added to
chicken food. The protein content desired in the chicken feed is 22% to obtain the concentrate, mix with
water and mix through a hammer mill.

RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
Materials of the Study
The materials used in the study are as follows: brooder and range house, shed type housing,
feeding and drinking troughs, broiler chicks (cobb type), commercial feeds, yellow corn, rice and record
materials.
Experimental Design and Treatments of the Study
The Completely Randomized Design (CRD) was used in the study. Sixty (60) broiler chicks were
randomly distributed to cages. Twenty five (25) birds were randomly distributed per treatment cage.
The experimental treatments used as feed rations are as follows;
T1-control (commercial feeds)
T2-half-cook rice
T3-half-cook corn
Site Selection
The site was cleared and provided with good shed, ventilation and easily cleaned inside and outside.
Securing the Chicks
The chicks were bought from the authorized BMEG Farm Supply store in the locality.
Preparing the Brooder and Brooding the Chicks
A 2 x 4m well screened brooding cage was constructed. Three 60-watt electric bulbs were
installed to provide the chicks with appropriate temperature during the brooding period. Newspapers were
used as litter. The chicks were fed with booster ration upon arrival until 21 days. Fresh water with
fermented fruits and vegetables juice (FFVJ) were given to the chicks at all times.
Securing Other Materials
Other materials needed in the study were bought in any store outlet.
Constructing the Chicken House and Rearing Cages
The design of the housing of the chickens was a shed type of roof and airy to get sunlight
required on the growth of organic chickens. Two cages of the two treatments were screened all around so
their chickens will be protected from predators like cats and rats. A screen net was used as a division of
the two treatment cages. The floor was provided with gravelly sand which serves as playground of the
chickens.
The brooding cage was utilized as a rearing cage of the chickens for the control. This was put
under the shed type house.
Preparing Half-Cooked Rice and Corns
Boil one (1) liter of water for every 1.2 kg of rice and corn grit. When the water is already boiling
put the rice and corn grit to the respective kettle, stir and remove from fire. Let it cool and ready for
feeding.
Feeding Management and Treatment Application
Required amount of feeds was given to all the experimental birds. Chick booster ratio was given
at the brooding stage (0-12 days old) and the prepared natural pro-biotics.
On the 22nd day to termination, commercial feed was given. For the first five days, the feeds
gradually shifted on the growth stage of the chicken. This is for the control. Chicks on the two treatments
were gradually shifted to half cooked rice and corn.
The floor of the range area was covered with gravelly sand for the chicks to eat stone grits. Acids
will help the gastric juices and the strong muscles of the gizzard to digest the feed intake.
Adequate number of feeders and sources of clean water are critical. Make sure that there are
enough, and that all chicken are able to eat some amount at any given time. This is one of the causes of
unequal growth, when some are left to eat.
Preparing the Natural Fermented Juice
The ingredients of mixture:
1kg molasses
700 ml Ginebra San Miguel gin (65DP)
100 ml E.M. Bokashi solution
1 kg tomato (reject)
½ kg radish
½ kg banana peelings (lakatan)
½ fresh malunggay leaves
Procedure:
1. Collect fresh malunggay leaves, banana peelings, radish and tomato.
2. Slice the banana peelings, radish and tomato into pieces.
3. Melt the molasses with hot water and let it cool.
4. Mix thoroughly malunggay leaves, banana peelings, radish and tomato.
5. Mix the wine and 100 ml E.M. to the melted molasses then slowly pour on the mixture of the
vegetables.
6. Put the mixture in a plastic container with tight cover and keep it in cool dry place for
fermentation (anaerobic) for seven days. Open the container everyday to remove the air.
7. After seven days, extract the juice and put it in a plastis bottle with tight lid and ready for use
as pro-biotic for chicken.
Sources of Drinking Water
The chickens were provided with clean fresh water every feeding time and natural pro-biotic at a
ratio of 10 ml per liter of water. The water was put in an automatic drinking through.
Cleanliness and Sanitation Management
The surrounding of the chicken’s house was cleaned regularly, morning and afternoon. The
chicken dung was collected and mixed with compost, rice hull and carbonized rice hull. This are pack in a
sack as an organic fertilizer. This was done to control and prevent the attack of pest and eliminating the
foul odor.
Data Gathering Procedure
1. Initial weights (g). This was taken by weighing the chicks at the start of the study.
2. Weekly weight (g). This was taken by weighing the birds weekly starting from the initial
weights for five weeks.
3. Final weights (g). This was taken by weighing the birds at the end of the study.
4. Weekly weights (g). This was determined by subtracting initial weight from the weekly
weight.
5. Total weight gain (g). This was determined by subtracting the initial weight from the final
weight.
6. Feed conversion ratio. This was computed using the formula:
FCR = total feed consumed
total weight gained
7. Feed conversion efficiency (%). This was computed using the formula:
FCE = weight gain x 100
feed intake
8. Taste. Two recipes (adobo and tinola) using the chicken meat were prepared and evaluated
by fifteen raters using the three points Likert scale:
1 – fair
2 – good
3 – very good
9. Return on Investment. All the costs of inputs and the net income were determined. The ROI
was computed using the formula:
ROI = net income__________ x100
total cost of production
Data Analysis Procedure
The data gathered were tabulated and calculated with the statistical analysis of Completely
Randomized Design (CRD).
Chapter IV
RESULTS AND DISCUSSION
General Observation
Generally, the experimental chickens from the three treatments did not show any variation in appearance
and they were healthy and vigorous during the brooding period. However, during the first week of the
treatment application, the chickens in the two treatments observed that a slow growth rate.
The control treatment has a thicker fat compared to the chickens fed with half-cooked rice and
corn.
Mortality recorded in T1 (two chickens) at the third week of treatment application caused by a
sudden death due to the abnormal gizzard of the chickens.
A good effect was observed on the growth of the chickens given with natural pro-biotic product
out fermented fruit juices and vegetables.
Mean Weight
Figure 1 shows the mean weight of White Leghorn broiler fed with commercial feeds, half-
cooked rice and corn. Results of the study shows T3 had the highest initial weight of 0.86 kg followed by
T2, 0.858 kg, and the least T1 with a mean weight of 0.850 kg.
On the 1st week, T1 had the highest mean weight of 1.302 kg followed by T2, 1.150 kg, and the
least is T3, 1.096 kg. This means that the chickens fed with commercial feeds were heavier than the
chickens fed with half-cooked rice.
On the 2nd week, T1 had the highest mean weight of 1720 grams followed by T2 and the least is T3
with mean weight of 1.39 kg and 1.284 kg respectively. This means that the chickens fed with
commercial feeds gained the highest average weight followed by the chickens fed with half-cooked rice
and the least were the chickens fed with half cooked corn.
On the 3rd week, T1 had the highest mean weight of 2.135 grams followed by T2 and the least is T3
with mean weights of 1.584 grams and 1.522 grams respectively. This means that chickens fed with
commercial feeds were the heaviest followed by the chickens fed with half-cooked rice and the lightest
were the chickens fed with half-cooked corn.
On the 4th and final week, T1 had the highest mean weight of 2.37 kg followed by T2 and the least
is T3 with mean weights of 1.754 kg and 1.54 kg respectively. This means that the chickens fed with
commercial feeds were the heaviest followed by the chickens fed with half cooked rice and the lightest
were the chickens fed with half-cooked corn.

Analysis of variance reveals that there were significant differences among treatment means in
terms of mean weight throughout the duration of the study. This means that the weight of chickens fed
with commercial feeds, half-cooked rice and corn had a great difference. This implies that the growth
hormones and nutrients on commercial feeds contribute a lot o the growth of Cobb broiler chicken. This
implies further that commercial feeds is better than Half-cooked rice and corn in attaining good growth
of broiler chicken.
Weight Gain
Figure 2 shows the weekly weight gain, total weight gain and daily weight gain of Cobb broiler
chickens fed with commercial feeds, half cooked rice and corn. On the 1st week, T1 had the highest
weight gain of 0.45 kg followed by T2 and T3 with respective weight gains of 0.292 kg and 0.238kg. This
means that chickens fed with commercial feeds gained the highest mean weight gain.
On the 2nd week, T1 attained the highest with a weight gain of 0.42 kg followed by T2 and T3 with
weight gains of 0.252 kg and 0.1864 kg respectively. This means that chickens fed with commercial feeds
gained the highest weight gain followed by the chickens fed with half-cooked rice and corn respectively.
On the 3rd week, T1 still had the highest weight gain of 0.411 kg followed by T3 and T2 with
respective weight gains of 0.234 kg and 0.194 kg. This means that chickens fed with commercial feeds
gained the highest weight gain followed by the chickens fed with half-cooked corn and the lightest were
the chickens fed with half-cooked rice.
For the total weight gain, T1 obtained the highest with a total weight gain of 1.530 kg followed by
T2 and T3 with total weight gains of 0.936 kg and 0.690 kg respectively. This means that chickens fed
with commercial feeds attained the highest total weight gain followed by the chicken fed with half-
cooked rice and the least were the chickens fed with half-cooked corn.
For the daily weight gain, T1 attained the highest with a mean of 0.096 kg by T2 and T3 with
respective means of 0.074 kg and 0.071 kg. This means that chickens fed with commercial feeds obtained
the highest daily weight gain followed by the chickens fed with half-cooked rice and corn respectively.

Analysis of variance shows that there were highly significant differences among the treatments in
terms of weight gain throughout the duration of the study. This means that the performance of the
chickens fed with commercial feeds, half-cooked rice and corn had great differences. This implies that the
chickens fed with commercial feeds are far better than the chickens fed with half-cooked rice and corn
due to the higher nutritive value of commercial feeds than half-cooked rice and corn.
Feed Conversion Ratio
Result of the study on the feed conversion ratio of chickens fed with commercial feeds, half-
cooked rice and corn is presented in figure 3. T3 had the highest FCR of 10.82 followed by T2 and T1 with
an FCR of 6.21 and 1.69 respectively.
The lower the FCR, the better is the performance of the birds. The T1 with an FCR of 1.69 is the
best. This means that 1.69 kg of feed is needed to make a kilo of meat. The chickens fed with commercial
feeds are far better than the chickens fed with half-cooked rice and half-cooked corn.

Figure 3 reveals that T1 is the best in terms of FCR, followed by T2 and T3. Analysis of variance
shows a significant difference among treatment means. This means that there is a great difference on the
feed conversion ratio of the chickens fed with commercial feeds, half-cooked rice and half-cooked corn.
This implies that commercial feeds contain the needed feed requirements in broiler meat production.
Feed Conversion Efficiency
Figure 4 shows the FCE of chickens fed with commercial feeds, half-cooked rice and half-cooked
corn. Result shows that T1 registered the highest with an FCE of 60.04 percent followed by T2 and T1 with
an FCE of 17.06 percent and 14.04 percent respectively.
The higher the FCE, the better is the performance of the birds. This means that higher percentage
of the feed is converted into meat. The chickens fed with commercial feeds are far better than the
chickens fed with half-cooked rice and half-cooked corn.

Analysis of variance reveals a highly significant difference among the treatments in terms of feed
conversion efficiency. This implies that the same amount of feeds fed to the chickens but chickens fed
with commercial feeds were the best in terms of feed conversion efficiency due to the nutrient
components required on the growth of Cobb broiler chicken.
Chicken Meat Taste
Meat taste of chickens fed with commercial feeds, half-cooked rice and half-cooked corn is
shown in figure 5. The chicken meats were cooked in two recipes, tinola and adobo.
On the tinola recipe T1 had a mean of 1.6 rated as fair, followed by T2 with mean of 2.28 rated as
good and T3 with a mean of 2.68 was rated as very good. This means that the meat of chickens fed with
half-cooked rice and half-cooked corn was the best for tinola, half-cooked rice better for tinola and
commercial feeds for a fair taste.
On the adobo recipe, T1 had a mean of 2.0 rated good, T2 and T3 had means of 2.93 and 2.89
respectively were both rated as very good. This means that meat of chickens fed with half-cooked rice
and corn are better for the adobo recipe compared to meat of chickens fed with commercial feeds.

Analysis of variance reveals a significant difference on the taste of chicken meat on the tinola
recipe. This implies that the components of the different rations given to the chicken greatly affect their
taste.
Analysis of variance also shows a highly significant difference on the taste of chicken meat on
the adobo recipe. This implies that synthetic commercial feeds and natural feeds (half-cooked rice and
corn) have great differences in affecting the taste of chicken meat.
Return on Investments
As shown in figure6, T1 had the highest production cost of P5751.00 followed by T3 and T2 with
production cost of P5520.00 and P5439.40 respectively.
In terms of net income, T1 obtained the highest with a net income of P349.00 followed by T2 with
a net income of P308.60 T3 had a loss of P78.00
In terms of ROI, T1 attained the highest with an ROI of 6.07 percent which means for every peso
invested, it gained a return of 6.07 centavo. The return, however, is very minimal. T2 had an ROI of 5.6
percent and negative return for T3.

SUMMARY, CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATION
Summary
To determine the effect of half-cooked rice and corn on the growth of cob broiler chicken, a study
was conducted from March 30 to May 15, 2012 at Namuac, Sanchez Mira, Cagayan.
Seventy five (75) Cobb Broiler Type were experimental chickens. The Completely Randomized
Design with the following treatments: T1- Control (Commercial feeds), T2 – half-cooked rice, T3 – half-
cooked corn.
The result of the study were summarized as follows:
1. The first week weight increment had a highly significant difference among treatment means,
T1 had the highest.
2. The second week weight increment obtained a highly significant difference among treatment
means. T1 had the highest increment comparable to T2 and T3.
3. The third week weight increment obtained a highly significant difference among treatment
means. T1 had the highest followed by T3 and T2 had the least.
4. A highly significant difference among treatments in terms of total gain weight. T1 obtained
the highest followed by T2 and the least T3.
5. Mean daily gain in weight had a highly significant difference among treatments. T1 had the
highest followed by T2 and T3 as the least.
6. The feed conversion ratio and feed conversion efficiency had a highly significant difference
among treatments. T1 had the highest performance both feed conversion ratio and efficiency.
7. A significant difference among treatments on the tinola recipe taste of chicken meat. T1 was
rated fair, T2 – good and T3 – very good.
8. A highly significant difference among treatments on the adobo recipe taste of chicken meat.
T1 was rated good, both T2 and T3 were rated very good.
9. In terms of return on investments, chickens fed with commercial feeds and half-cooked rice
had a little return and the chickens fed with halt-cooked corn had a loss.
Conclusion
Based on the foregoing findings of the study, it is concluded that commercial feeds has a better
effect on the growth performance of Cobb chickens in terms of gain in weight, feed conversion ratio, feed
conversion efficiency and return on investment.
Further, it is concluded that tinola and adobo recipes taste of chicken meat were better for
chickens fed with half-cooked rice and corn.
Recommendation
Based on the drawn conclusions, it is recommended that follow-up studies on a ration of half-
cooked rice and corn to validate the results and findings and to formulate a natural feed rations for
chickens.
