Summary. Meat and poultry farming is one of the fastest growing and rapidly developing industries in the livestock industry. To meet all the needs of animals and poultry in different age and sex periods of feeding and keeping, good nutrition, namely in terms of energy and protein content, is given a great importance.

Silicon, as a mineral component of feed, affects growth and development of connective tissue, the strength and elasticity of blood vessels, participates in intermediate metabolism as a communication element that ensures the normal course of vital mechanisms.

During the study of various doses of silicon dioxide in the feeding of broiler chickens, it was found that the safety of chickens of all experimental groups was 100%, no cases of death were detected; the maximum difference in live weight - 6.7% and 5.8% was observed on the 28th day, the absolute increase in live weight of broiler chickens in the experimental groups was greater than the control values – by 1.7-3.8%, feed costs per unit increase decreased in all experimental groups by 1.5-2.5%, the weight of gutted carcass in the experimental groups increased by 1.6-3.3%, muscle mass by 1.0-5.3%. The protein content in the pectoral muscles of the carcasses of broiler chickens of the experimental groups increased by 0.2-1.3%, in the femoral muscles by 0.4-1.9%, and in the lower leg muscles decreased by 1.1-2.4%, the fat level in the femoral muscles increased by 1.5-3.1%, in the lower leg muscles by 0.6-2.3%, and in the pectoral muscles decreased by 0.1-0.5% compared to similar indicators of the control group.

Key words: live weight, meat productivity, meat quality, broiler chicken feeding, silicon dioxide.
