Effects of Tulsi Leaf Extract on Body Weight Gain in Broiler Production

Abstract: The objective of this research was to evaluate the effect of tulsi leaf (Ocimum sanctum) extract supplementation in drinking water as a growth promoter in broiler chickens. A total of 40 Cobb-500 broiler chicks (day-old) were purchased from local hatchery (Nourish Poultry and Hatchery Ltd.). After seven days of acclimatization chicks were randomly divided into two groups, A (n=20) and B (n=20). The group A was kept as a control and not treated. The group B was supplemented with tulsi leaf extract with feed and… Show more

“…A joint IFPRI/FAO/ILRI study suggested that global production and consumption of meat will continue to rise from 233 million metric tons (MT) in the year 2000 to 300 million MT in 2020, with particularly poultry meat production growing from 9 MT in 1960 to 68 MT in 2000 due to increasing national demand [ 2 ]. This has triggered the discovery and widespread use of a number of “growth promoters (GPs).” The GPs are added to the ration with the purpose of boosting animal performance by increasing the growth rate, improving the feed conversion efficiency, increasing survivability, and lowering mortality in poultry birds [ 3 ]. Further, GPs are gaining popularity as feed additives due to their favorable effects on gut health and immunity [ 4 , 5 ].…”

“…Studies in which the Rosmarinus officinalis plant oil and essential oil are compared with probiotics support our findings (Bugdayci and Ergun, 2011;Ciftci et al, 2013). Contrary to these studies, it was reported in studies where (Ocimum sanctum) tulip petal extract was used that some organ weights increased (Hasan et al, 2016). Hot carcass weight is the highest in the groups to which additions of rosewater were made at different levels in the rations, and the control group had the lowest value.…”

“…This study is the current study supporting the results of our study. However, there are findings about how different aromatic plants and extracts positively affect live weight in broiler rations (Zhang et al, 2013;Hasan et al, 2016). The difference in the results obtained from these studies can be explained by housing conditions, environmental factors, and plant-dependent factors like the type of plant extracts used, dose, containing volatile fatty acids, active substance rate and interaction.…”
