In addition, the body weight distribution curve was calculated
for the four levels of DL-Methionine supplementation.
As shown in Figure 2, only a very small fraction of
the birds was actually within the target range of 1700 to
1900 g when they received feed without DL-Methionine
supplementation. In contrast, the fraction within the
target range improved considerably at the highest
methionine supplementation level. As mentioned above
the improvement in flock uniformity will have a huge
impact on the value of the broilers when processed to
the final product.
