| Summary: | The objective of this research was to determine the effect of extract of
garlic, turmeric and combination of both as phytobiotic sources which was
given as a feed additive to broiler chicken. One hundred broiler chickens were
divided into five treatments and four replications each that consist of 5
chickens per unit, samples were taken each 1 chicken. The treatments were
R0 = The basal diet (control), R1 = The basal diet + zincbacitracin, 0.0015%,
R2 = The basal diet + extract of garlic as much 2.5% of basal diet (DM basis),
R3 = The basal diet + extract of turmeric 2%, R4 = The basal diet + extract of
turmeric and extract of garlic 2.5% (1:3). Maintenance was carried out for 6
weeks. Diet and water was given ad libitum. Data were analyzed by a
Completely Randomized Design (CRD), the differences between mean
analysed by contrast test. The results showed that there were significant
differences (P�0.05) on the abdominal fat contain (P<0.05) R0 = 2.37±0.88,
R1 = 2.69±1.19, R2 = 2.06±0.58, R3 = 1.02±0.26, R4 =1.04±0.51,
subcutaneous fat (P<0.05) R0 = 51.63±1.49, R1 = 47.07±4.57, R2 =
40.02±8.16, R3 = 43.78±1.06, R4 =40.45±4.20, and meat fat thigh (P<0.05) R0
= 7.8±1.83, R1 = 7.8±0.80, R2 = 5.2±0.96, R3 = 6.0±0.96 R4 = 5.9±0.83. The
addition of phytobiotic extract garlic, turmeric and combination of both
decrease abdominal fat, subcutaneous fat, and meat thighs fat.
