Present study was conducted to assess the effect of replacement of 0, 25, 50 and 75% soybean meal protein with biodegraded brewers’ dried grains on growth performance, carcass yield, biochemical changes and economics of broiler production. Four isocaloric and isonitrogenous dietary treatments contain 22, 20 and 19 % CP and 2800, 2850 and 2950 Kcal/kg ME, during starter (0-2 wks), grower (3-4 wks) and finisher (5-6 wks) phase, respectively. The body weight gain and feeding efficiency (FCR, PER and EER) was similar to control with higher economic return with replacement of 25% soybean meal protein with biodegraded brewer’s dried grains. While carcass and biochemical parameters did not vary with inclusion of biodegraded BDG. Â
