Effect of guar sprout meal on the growth, nutrient utilization and hematological characteristics of genetically improved farmed tilapia (Gift) fingerlings

The present study was carried out on the fingerlings of Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) to investigate the effect of ‘Guar sprout meal (GSM)’ as a potential protein replacement of fishmeal. The experiment was set in triplicate with five isonitrogenous and isolipidic containing guar sprout meal at an inclusion rate of 0, 25, 50, 75 and 100% respectively.
