Abstract

Throughout Asia and the Pacific region, inadequate supply of maize will limit further expansion of the poultry industries during the coming decade. In this context, the use of locally available energy feedstuffs merits increased attention. This review examines the potential feeding value and nutritional limitations of some carbohydrate sources, with special reference to Asia and the Pacific region. Some guidelines that may lead to better utilization of these feed resources are also discussed.
