The experiment was conducted to evaluate the effects of moisture levels at harvest and drying temperatures of corn on its chemical composition and apparent metabolizable energy corrected to zero nitrogen retention (AMEn) to broiler chickens. The corn was harvested with 35%, 25%, 18%, 15.3% and 14.3% of moisture and submitted to drying temperatures of 100, 70 and 40 ºC. The moisture levels of 15.3% and 14.3% of corn were not submitted to drying and the last value represented the treatment […]
