Campbell (KC), Zending (Z) ducks in an integrated duck-cum-fish farming system for
a period of 15 months. Two hundred- seventy number 90-days-old duckling of Indian
Runner, Khaki Campbell and Zending ducks fed (115g/duck day1) on a formulated feed
containing 18.41% crude protein and 2720.50 ME (kcal kg1) of energy for grower ration
and 16.68% crude protein and 2637.00 ME (kcal kg1) of energy for layer ration. The
results showed that the three genotypes were almost similar in body weight gain,
mortality, egg production, feed conversion and egg weight (P>0.05). In respective of
breed, egg production (nos./ duck) was inversely correlative (r = -0.33; P<0.001) with
fish production (kg/duck). The total income from egg, fish, Spent duck and net profit per
duck were almost similar in three breeds (P>0.05).]]>AOAC,198415th Edn.,APHA,197113th Edn.,pp: 874pp: 874Ali, M.A., M.A. Hossain and M.A. Islam,199252532Edwards, P.,19831273280Engl, C.R.,198718173174Hamid, M.A., M.A. Hassian, M.A.R.
