In poultry farming is increasing effort to increasing profitability and decreasing of feed cost. Behind the components that are part of the mixture, the most of cost makes processing of nutrients. Extrusion is process which is increasingly used in order to enhance the quality of different feed for poultry. The aim of this research was comparative testing of nutritional value of extruded and nonextruded corn in nutrition of broiler chicken. The experiment was conducted under experimental growing conditions, in duration of 42 days. The following parameters were measured: growth, feed intake and vitality of broilers. The experiment was divided into two groups of chickens hybrid Ross-308, which were grown separately by sex with 8 replication. The first group was fed standard pelleted mixtures for growing chickens, in which the entire amount of corn in the mixture was extruded, and the second, control group was fed the same food in which corn was not extruded. In the second week of rearing the body weight was 437 g in both groups. In 4th week of age the average body weight was 1439g in group I, and 1419 in group II. For the first group conversion was 1,69 and for the second it was 1,71. The final body weight amounted 2595g for the first group and 2609 for the control group. In the first group conversion was 1,91, mortality 4,39% and the production index had a value of 309, and in the second 1,92; 4,56% and 306. In this study excellent production effects were achieved, so it was not expected that extrusion could achieve better production effects. These results showed that extrusion process does not always give the expected effects.
