The main objective of this study was the use of Erythrina sp leaf meal as a protein source for broiler production, and the specific objectives were to evaluate productive indexes such as weight gain, feed conversion, feed consumption; to know the nutritional quality of Erythrina sp leaf meal (proximal analysis, energy level). As results we found that the indexes of yield (kg/total) of live weight were for the T0 (Control) that obtained the highest average in final weight, weight gain and feed consumption with values of 1.81 kg, 1.77 kg and 77 kg, respectively. When evaluating feed conversion, the highest average was obtained with T2 (6% Erythrina meal) with a value of 1.81 kg. The total protein value of the Erythrina without petiole versus with petiole was evaluated, being higher in the Erythrina without petiole with a value of 22.45 as opposed to the Erythrina with petiole with 14.41. The crude fiber analysis is higher in the analysis of Erythrina with petiole with a value of 32.01 as opposed to Erythrina without petiole with 22.58.
