Abstract:
This experiment was conducted out in the Hatchery of College of Animal
Production Science and Technology the Sudan University of
Science
and
Technology during the period from 10 July to 30 Agates 1028 The objective of
the study was Effects of Soaked Pigeon Peas Seed Using graded Levels on the
Growth performance and Food Utilization of Mon-sex Nile Tilapia, (Oreochromis
niloticus) Fingerlings Diets. A total of fish 140 Nile tilapia, were randomly assigned
to four dietary treatments (0, 25%, 50% and 75%), each treatment was composed
of three replicates (10fish/replicate).
The study demonstrated that there were significant differences (p≤0.05) in the
(WG g/Fish), (DWG g/Fish) and (SGR) of mono-sex Nile tilapia (Oreochromis
Niloticus) fed on diets with partially replaced by Pigeon peas. InControl, T1, T2%
and T3% \days increase in control (3.4±0.01 to 9.93±0.73), T1(3.3±00 to
9.00±0.53),T2 (3.2±00 to7.60±0.26) and T3(3.3±00 to 7.23±0.03) at (p≤0.05), and
the Lowest level of survival rate 69.12% was noted in fish fed with the diet
containing the level of Pigeon Peas T2 (50%). and the heist of increase was noted
in fish fed with the diet containing the level of Pigeon Peas T1 (25%),it recorded
the best effect in growth index.
