APPENDIX B 



Poultry Feed Formulations 



The two broiler and three breeder feed formulations used in this 

 report are given in Table B-1. The formulations are adopted from the 

 1963 New England College Conference Chicken and Turkey Rations. 

 The breeder formulations are modified by substituting 50 percent pro- 

 tein soybean oil meal for the recommended 44 percent. This eliminates 

 the need for the model mills to purchase and store two different grades 

 of meal. The substitution reduces the pounds of soybean meal per ton 

 and is offset by the addition of a like number of pounds of corn.
