dc.description.abstractThis study was aimed at investigating the effects of dietary supplementation with different levels ofolive cake meal (0%, 2.5%, 5% and 7.5%) on the fattening performance and slaughter and carcasstraits of quails. For this purpose, 400 one-day-old Japanese quail chicks were randomly assigned to4 groups, each with 5 replicates. The quails were fed on either a basal diet alone (Control Group)or a basal diet supplemented with olive cake meal at rates of 2.5% (Group I), 5% (Group II) and7.5% (Group III) for a period of 42 days. At the end of the fattening period, dietary olive cake mealwas observed not to have caused any adverse effect on body weight, feed intake and feed conversionrate. Eviscerated hot carcass weight, eviscerated cold carcass weight, wing weight, breast weight,thigh weight and edible visceral organ weights were determined to have improved in the treatmentgroups that received dietary olive cake meal, when compared to the control group. In conclusion,dietary supplementation with olive cake meal, a waste product of the olive oil industry, at a level of5%, was observed to produce the closest and most similar results to those of feeding on the basaldiet. Thus, it is suggested that olive cake meal could be used as an alternative feedstuff for poultry.Furthermore, the use of olive cake meal as an alternative feedstuff would contribute to reducingboth feed costs and environmental pollution
