Abstract
The study examined the impact of fresh Azolla feeding on egg production and production cost in local dohfari chicken. It was conducted from period of Oct 2022 to January 2023 in the animal researches station salalah-oman. In this study, birds were distributed into three group with different feeding levels (A), (B)and (C) respectively, each group consist of 30-layer hen of 5-month old weight average of 1.6 kg. Group(A)fed on 100g of concentrated feed 17%protein per day, group (B)fed on 100g of 50%fresh Azolla and 50% concentrated feed 17%protein and group (C)fed on 100g of fresh Azolla per day. The data of daily egg production was collected and data of production inputs also collected. The study used one was ANOVA test to analyze the data and visibility study to analyze the cost. The results show that there is significant difference in egg production among three groups (p0<001), that means group (A)which is control group recorded average of 22egg with percentage 73.3%, group(B)recorded average (16.13) egg with percentage of 53.7% and group (C)recorded average of (3.48) egg with percentage 11.6%, and also use of Azolla minimize nutrition cost by 50% and total cost of production by 35% and consider as sustainable and economic feed source.
