Effect of feeding Cyperus Rotundus extract on the Amelioration of heat stress in broiler

This study was conducted to investigate the effects of feeding Cyperus rotund us extract on the growth performance, blood profiles and lymphoid organs status of heat stressed broiler. A total of 24 Cobb broilers at 21-day-old were assigned to four treatment groups. Three treatment groups were; Tl (...

description This study was conducted to investigate the effects of feeding Cyperus rotund us extract on the growth performance, blood profiles and lymphoid organs status of heat stressed broiler. A total of 24 Cobb broilers at 21-day-old were assigned to four treatment groups. Three treatment groups were; Tl (heat stress), T2 (Heat stress plus 1 mil kg body weight of ascorbic acid) and T3 (Heat stress plus 1 ml/kg body weight of Cyperus rotundus extract) while TO served as the control group. Results showed there was a sudden decrease in the body weight gain (BWG) until 2 weeks of heat stress in all treatment groups and in control. But there was an increment (p<O.OS) in BWG, feed intake (FI) along with efficient feed conversion at 3rd week in the Cyperus rotundus extract feeding group. Thus, this study suggested that administration of Iml/ kg body weight of Cyperus rotundus extract can exert ramification on heat stressed broiler after 2 weeks of feeding only.
