Utilizing brown mushroom stem waste as an eco-friendly alternative to soybean meal in layer chick nutrition
BMS powder could be a potential and sustainable replacement for soybean meal in poultry diets. It maintained consistent growth performance and organ weight, reduced gas emissions, and positively influenced blood biochemical markers, emphasizing its potential benefits. Future research should validate these findings in commercial settings and explore their long-term applications for broader adoption in eco-friendly production systems.
