Corn kernel hardness, drying temperature and amylase supplementation affect live performance and nutrient utilization of broilers

ABSTRACT: Drying temperature (DT) of corn can influence its nutritional quality, but whether this is influenced by endosperm hardness is not clear. Two parallel experiments were conducted to investigate the effects of 2 yellow dent corn hybrids with average and hard kernel hardness, dried at 3 tempe...
