Abstract

Globally, the poultry industry has a significant economic role, especially in Africa, where small farm holders contribute substantially to the national gross domestic product (GDP). Poultry feeding costs are rapidly increasing and account for over 60 percent of the production costs, but efficient feed formulation practices are a sustainable way of reducing the price. Ghanaian farmers use methods such as the rule of thumb, personal experience, and intuition to solve feed formulation problems. This study showed that the least-cost starter ration price decreased by 1.61%, and the least-cost finisher ration price decreased by 4.48%, indicating that non-conventional feed ingredients have a high economic value.
