This experiment was carried out to determine the performance of broiler finisher placed on different levels of inclusion of pro-vitamin A cassava-based diet ( 0%, 25%, 50%, 75% and 100% )using maize-based diet as control. The results show that the daily weight gain of birds placed on 0% was statistically (p<0.05) higher than those on 100% but not on those of 25%, 50%,and 75%. However the birds placed on 100% level had the lowest growth ratewhich was significantly (p<0.05) different from birds on 0% and 25% but not with birds on 50% and 75%. The average daily feed intake did not show any significant difference (p>0.05)among all the diets. The feed conversion ratio was not statistically (p>0.05) different from one another. The cost of production was highest with maize-based diet (0%) while that of the 75% and100% were the cheapest with cost reduction of 34.19% and 40.46% per birdrespectively. The lower cost of production with pro-vitamin A cassava compensates the growth rate suggesting that pro-vitamin A cassava-based diet can totally replace maize-based diet in broiler diets without any deleterious effect when properly processed to reduce the cyanogenic content of the cassava to non-toxic level
