Effect of reduced crude protein diets supplemented with free limiting amino acids on body weight, carcass yield, and breast meat quality in broiler chickens.

This study investigated the effect of reducing dietary crude protein (CP) content in the grower and finisher diets of broiler chickens on breast meat quality, muscle protein functionality, growth, carcass yield, and meat yield. To achieve this, a total of 1,269 one-day-old male Ross 308 chicks were fed 1 of 3 diets replicated 9 times each in a randomized complete block design with 9 blocks. The diets included a control (20.
