“…Similarly, Santos and Carvalho (2014) also reported that the supplementation of garlic extract had no any significant effect on gastrointestinal endoparasites of sheep. Conversely to our study, Hasan et al (2015) reported that EPG count of gastrointestinal parasites was significantly lower in the garlic supplemented groups as compared to control. Lapinski et al (2018) also reported that the supplementation of garlic reduced the number of coccidia oocysts per gram of faeces in rabbits.…”

Background: With the ban on the use of antibiotics as feed additives and growth promoters in animal nutrition, livestock scientists are now shifting their attention towards natural and safe products like organic acids, probiotics, prebiotics and herbal growth promoters. Plants containing essential compounds can be a cost-effective means of improving efficiency of nutrient utilization and growth performance of animals. Garlic (Allium sativum L.) belongs to the family Liliaceae, which is a genus of 500 species. The medicinal properties of garlic may have beneficial effects on nutrient utilization and health of animals. However, very few studies have been reported whereby garlic has been fed to ruminants. Therefore, the present study was design to investigate the effect of garlic supplementation on nutrient utilization, gastro intestinal parasites and haemato-biochemical profile in crossbred calves. Methods: Twelve crossbred male calves of similar age (3-6 months) were randomly allotted to two equal groups ((n=6) on basis of body weight. All animals were maintained on common feeding regime consisting of required concentrate mixture and roughage as per requirement given by ICAR (2013). Calves in experimental group were supplemented with garlic (Allium sativum) @ 250 mg per kg body weight whereas; the control group was remaining unsupplemented. The study was conducted for 90 days. After 60 days of experimental feeding a digestion trial of seven days was conducted to access the nutrient utilization of animals. The faecal sample of each animal was collected fortnightly for parasitological examination of helminthes eggs. Blood samples were collected from each animal at 0 and 90 days of feeding trial to assess the haemato biochemical profile of crossbred calves. Result: The results indicated that the intake and digestibility of DM, OM, CP, EE, ADF and NDF were statistically (P greater than 0.05) similar in both the groups. The haemato-biochemical parameters like Hb, PCV, RBC, WBC, glucose, TP, albumin, globulin and A:G ratio were statistically (P greater than 0.05) comparable among both the groups at 0 and 90 days of study. Similarly, the fortnightly faecal egg per gram (EPG) was also statically (P greater than 0.05) similar in both the groups. From the results it can be deduced that the garlic (Allium sativum) supplementation has no any effect on feed intake and digestibility of DM, OM, CP, EE, ADF, NDF and CP but significantly increases in digestibility of CF. Garlic powder supplementation did not have any appreciable effect on haemato-biochemical profile and faecal egg per gram (EPG) in crossbred calves.

“…The effects of feeding garlic or garlic extracts on the ADG and DMI livestock were not consistent in the literature. For example, Chaves et al (2008) reported that dietary garlic oil supplementation had no effects on DMI and ADG of lambs without parasitic infection [33], whereas Hasan et al (2015) found that the ADG of grazing goats infected with internal parasites increased 10.3% when goats were fed with a water solution of garlic [8]. The present results showed that the ADG of lambs infected with GINs significantly increased by 9.5% when the lambs were fed with garlic powder.…”

“…Apart from these properties, some recent studies revealed that garlic extracts have anti-parasitic properties against Aspiculuris tetrapte infection in mice [6], Neobenedenia sp. infection in fish [7], GIN infection in goats [8], and Trypanosoma b. brucei and Leishmania tarentolae infection in humans [9]. It has been widely reported that several bioactive sulfur-containing compounds in garlic, such as alliin, diallylsulfides, and allicin exert anti-parasitic activity due to their special chemical structures, which can interact with sulfhydryl groups of proteins to block the physiological metabolism of parasites [10,11].…”

For the study, forty lambs were weighed and assigned into two treatments to determine the effects of feeding garlic powder on growth performance, rumen fermentation, and the health status of lambs infected with gastrointestinal nematodes (GINs). The lambs were fed with a basal diet without or with 50 g/kg garlic powder for 84 d. Data were analyzed by a general linear or mixed model of SAS software and differences were considered statistically significant if p ≤ 0.05. Results showed that garlic powder supplementation increased the lambs’ average daily gain (p = 0.025), digestibility of dry matter (p = 0.019), and crude protein (p = 0.007). No significant changes were observed on the dry matter intake, feed conversion ratio, as well as the apparent digestibility of lipid and fiber. An interactive effect between treatment and feeding day was observed on ruminal pH (p < 0.001) and ammonia nitrogen concentration (p < 0.001). Ruminal pH (p < 0.001) and ammonia nitrogen concentration (p < 0.001) decreased with garlic powder supplementation, while ammonia nitrogen concentration increased (p = 0.001) with the extension of the feeding period. Garlic powder supplementation increased the total volatile fatty acid concentration (p < 0.001) in the rumen fluid, the molar proportion of acetic acid (p = 0.002), propionic acid (p < 0.001), and isovaleric acid (p = 0.049), but it decreased the ratio of acetic acid to propionic acid (p = 0.015). The lambs’ fecal egg count decreased (p < 0.001), but the packed cell volume and body condition scores of lambs increased (p < 0.001) with garlic powder supplementation. In conclusion, feeding garlic powder increased growth performance, feed digestion, rumen fermentation, and the health status of lambs infected with GINs.

“…Wall (2011) beschrijft hoe essentiële oliën antibiotica in de kunstmelk kunnen vervangen en positieve effecten hebben op de voeropname, dagelijkse groei, darmgezondheid en pens-ontwikkeling. Onderzoek bij zwarte Bengaalse geiten (Hasan et al, 2015) keek naar de effecten van knoflook op de gewichtstoename en eiuitscheiding. Hiervoor zijn 3 groepen van 6 geiten van 18-22 maanden oud behandeld met of normaal voer (T0), of met normaal voer + tweemaal daags 25 ml 10% verse knoflookoplossing (T1) of met normaal voer + dagelijks 50 ml 10% knoflookoplossing (T2) gedurende 60 dagen.…”

De eerste versies voor melkvee, varkens en pluimvee zijn in 2009 uitgekomen met een update in 2011.Op dit moment is er ook vraag naar methoden om het antibiotica gebruik te reduceren en inzicht in toepassing van natuurlijke middelen vanuit de schapenhouderij. Het streven om het gebruik van antibiotica terug te dringen vraagt om een ander management. Goede voeding van een gezonde bodem, huisvesting en hygiëne zijn hierbij belangrijk. In dit boekje worden handvaten gegeven om met natuurlijke middelen de gezondheid en de weerstand van de dieren te bevorderen en zo ziektes te voorkomen. Tevens kunnen middelen worden ingezet om de ernst van de ziekte te reduceren.Doel is tevens om de dierenartsen te informeren over de mogelijkheden van natuurproducten en de wetenschappelijke onderbouwing hiervan inzichtelijk te maken.

De antistoffen die in de eerste zestien uur worden opgenomen beschermen het lam drie tot vier weken tegen infecties. Daarna begint de productie van eigen antistoffen.De conditie en weerstand van de ooi, haar voeding en de hoeveelheid biest die ze produceert hebben invloed op de kwaliteit van de biest en daarmee de gezondheid van het lam.Pasgeboren lammeren in de wei in in de stal (foto's: Judith van Andel)
