Description Sugarcane press residue (SPR), a by-product of sugar industry is a potential
source due to availability and unique nutrient composition. Though the chemical
analysis of SPR reflects it as a good source of both organic and inorganic nutrients,
yet the biological experiments revealed that the nutritive value of SPR is poor.
To conclude, the possibility of inclusion of SPR as an unconventional feed
resource in diets for non-ruminants particularly in poultry diets beyond 5% level, the
minimum level that was tested appears to be remote. If the nutritional responses are
looked beyond the usual criteria of weight gain in broilers and egg production in
layers to parameters such as birds’ optimal health and consumers’ preference for lean
meat, SPR appears to be a optional ingredient in poultry rations. However, since
limited reports available on the utilization of SPR in both broilers and layers, it is
rather inferred that some more research is required to confirm the present findings.
