Résumé
An experiment was conducted to study the effect of vinegar, sodium bicarbonate and potassium chloride in drinkingwater on broiler performance exposed to high ambient temperature [39 - 44C]. Six - hundred day old straight run broiler chicks [faobro] were randomly distributed at 4 - weeks of age to four treatment:1-Treatment 1 control group.2- Treatment 2: 0.1% vinegar added to drinking water.3- Treatment 3 : 0.5% sodium bicarbonate added to drinking water.4- Treatment 4 : 0.5% potassium chloride added to drinking water.The results showed that the addition of potassium chloride to drinking water resulted in a significant [p<0.01] improvement in body weight. While the addition of sodium bicarbonate and potassium chloride had resulted in a significant [p<0.05] improvement in daily live weight gain, feed conversion ratio dressing percentage, edible parts percentages, abdominal fat percentage, water Consamption, productive index value, economic figure, and mortality percentage
