| Description: |
In poultry production, biostimulants can replace antibiotics. These substances, made from plant extracts, improve animal growth and performance. This experiment was carried out to investigate the impact of biostimulants (NUQO©NEX) as a natural growth promoter on growth parameters and economic efficiency measurements. Unsexed 1 d old chicks ( n =90 ) of a commercial meat type (Ross 308) were randomly equally allocated into three groups of six replicates (five chicks per replicate) in this study. Group G1 fed on the control diet (without additive), while groups G2 and G3 fed on the diet supplemented with 100 mg NUQO©NEX kg −1 (on top and (matrix value; this matrix reduced the nutrient requirement by 0.3 % crude protein and 30 kcal metabolizable energy, respectively) for 35 d. Results showed that broiler chicks of groups G2 and G3 showed a significant ( P |
