Performance of Broiler Chickens Induced With Field Isolates of Eimeria Tenella, Treated With Methanolic Leaf Extract and Leaf Powder of Adansonia Digitata
Abstract:Coccidiosis poses a serious threat to the poultry industry globally due to the great economic losses. The development of resistance strains to the available synthetic drugs is another major issue. Consequently, a study was conducted to evaluate the efficacy of methanolic leaf extract and leaf powder of Adansonia digitata (baobab tree or monkey- bread tree), in feed to treat coccidiosis. In treated groups oocysts output reduced from + 10 per microscopic field (mf) to + 1 but remained high (+ 10) in control grou… Show more
