| Abstract | Carcass quality and product performance are major determinants of profitability and sustainability of any poultry enterprise. This study was undertaken on Japanese quails to evaluate the possibility of the effect of pomegranate peel powder (PPP) on growth performance, carcass quality, sensory evaluation, and economic return. A total of ninety-day old Japanese quail were randomly and equally assigned to three treatments (n=30). The results showed that birds fed 1% and 1.5% PPP had higher (P<0.05) dressing, liver and heart percentage than control group. The birds fed with 1% PPP had the highest revenue and net return and also gave the least cost-benefit ratio. Results indicate that the addition of PPP had beneficial effect on carcass quality, health of bird and economical return. |
