| Popis: | This study investigated the effects of Moringa oleifera leaf extracts (MLE) in broiler diets on growth performance, carcase characteristics, physical meat quality, haematological parameters, and caecal bacterial counts. A total of 144 Arbour Acres broilers were randomly assigned into 3 experimental groups (eight replicates having six chicks), naming control (received a basal diet with fresh drinking water), antibiotic (75 mg chlortetracycline/L of drinking water), and MLE (50 ml Moringa oleifera leaf extracts/L of drinking water). The MLE group had the highest average daily gain, final body weight, and lower feed conversion ratio than both control and antibiotic groups. Overall, the MLE treatment significantly reduced (p |
