Freeze-dried bovine adenohypophysis arises as a promoter of biological growth in broilers that seeks as an alternative the improvement of zootechnical parameters in this poultry farm, with the optimization of factors such as weight gain, feed conversion, consumption, carcass performance, among others. Through this research that will be carried out at the Francisco de Paula Santander Ocaña University using a completely randomized design, with four treatments and six replications and 10 chickens per unit. experimental, with subcutaneous applications of the product at a rate of 1 cc / applications, described as follows: T0 = None, T1 = 14 - 21 days, T2 = 14 - 21 - 28 days, T3 = 14 - 21 - 28 - 35 days. The results obtained deduced for the specific variables that there are significant differences, thus demonstrating a positive effect caused by the lyophilized adenohypophysis. Which leads to the conclusion that this product can be an essential element based on its biological quality in the competition for profit maximization in the broiler farm.
